The HEAD Lynx Tour 17G (1.25 mm) in Orange is a tour-tier, 6-sided (hexagonal) co-polyester monofilament engineered for intermediate to advanced tournament and club players who demand maximum spin, trajectory control, and tension stability. Offered in a bright Orange cosmetic, this string provides high visual pop on the court while delivering a slightly livelier, softer hitting feel compared to standard stiff co-polyester control strings.

Unlike standard round HEAD Lynx, the Lynx Tour line features a sharp geometric shape designed to dig into the tennis ball cover for heavy topspin generation and predictable depth control.

Performance Profile

  1. Spin Access & Ball Bite (9.5/10): Superior. The 6-sided hexagonal profile grips the ball felt upon contact, creating sharp RPMs and steep downward trajectories on full baseline strokes.
  2. Control & Target Accuracy (9.5/10): Precise. Delivers a firm, predictable string bed response that allows heavy hitters to swing out aggressively without pushing shots past the baseline.
  3. Tension Maintenance (9.0/10): Outstanding. Retains playable tension significantly longer than average monofilament polyesters, minimizing performance degradation over extended sessions.
  4. Touch & Dwell Time (8.5/10): Balanced. Incorporates HEAD’s updated co-polymer blend to soften impact shock, offering clear tactile feedback on touch shots and volleys without feeling harsh.

Key Technologies

  1. 6-Sided Hexagonal Geometry: Sharp geometric edges dig directly into the ball surface, maximizing main-string deflection, bite, and snap-back spin.
  2. Updated Co-Polymer Blend: Formulated to optimize structural dampening, offering stiffer tour-level control without transferring harsh frame vibrations to the arm.
  3. 17G (1.25 mm) Gauge: Enhances string elasticity and ball pocketing relative to thicker 16G variants, offering livelier launch angles and crisp responsiveness.

Best Suited For

  1. Aggressive Baseline Hitters: Competitors seeking maximum spin bite and depth control on fast-swing groundstrokes.
  2. Players Seeking Tension Retention: Hitters looking to avoid rapid tension drop and premature dead string bed feel.
  3. Vibrant Racquet Matching: The high-visibility Orange colorway pairs dynamically with modern racquets (such as HEAD Radical, Extreme, Speed, or Boom series).
