I actually bought a Head IG Extreme raquet with free string and picked the Head 18g Hawk.As both the head light raquet and polyester string are new to me, my comment will be somewhat subjective.My raquet was strung at 55lb and I feel string bed is very soft. It is very comfortable and easy to control the direction of ball.I also highly recommend the 18g polyester string, which is good with polyester that give you durability, feel and spin.

I usually play with RPM 16g strings - but because I also purchased a racket the Hawk strings were no charge. I figured i could try the strings because the price was right. If I didnt like Ill get it restrung with my ususl. Overall Ive been pleasantly surprise do. Nice feel at the net and generated a decent pop when going for a winner down the line.Where I feel it doesnt measure up to the RPM is generating topspin . I notice this right away from my baseline shots sailing deep and not biting the back line.

The quality of the tennis string is good. But the string pull on the tennis racket is not good.
Good strings. Very good deal if you get these for free when buying a head racquet. Good spin and control. Low power and slightly stiff for any new players.
It does the job. Not great but not bad either. Head boom racquet was strung to 52 pounds but I believe the warehouse string it at about 48.
This is what I was looking for as a poly cross in a hybrid. Very slick coating. Tension maintenance about average for a poly.
I've been using these strings since two or three years ago. They're very resistant mostly with this weather (UK) and give me control and at the same time I can hit the ball with a lot of weight and topspin.
I will recommend this string ,offer a high level playabilty in any part of your game.
hawk is good storing because perfect pawer and control ,spin and so on.I have a prestege MPL . It was goog racket. I have been playing tennis with hawk.I think this storing is very good.~thank you!~
