New strings?
I was thinking about trying new strings when I restring my Babolat Pure Drive. I am currently using Gamma TNT2 16 string but I feel like it isn't very good for me. I am a 4.5 player and usually play a baseline game. I was thinking of getting Pro Hurricane or Pro Hurricane Tour string but was wondering how long it would last compared to TNT2 16 string. I play about 8-10 hours a week. Recommendations?

Hi, I have n ever used the Gamma strings but I have the pure drive and use the Pro Hurricane/Xcel Premium hybrid recommended by Babolat. I find it extremely comfortable and durable without sacrificing much power (I am 6'1 and generate a lot on my swing though).
The last time I strung it was at 60 pounds about 2 months ago and I am just about feeling the need to restring, but I play much less frequently than you do - 2 to 4 hours/week (wish I could play 10 hours a week).
If you are a frequent string breaker, you may also want to try a thicker string (although your spin will suffer). Give the hybrid stringing a try and use their website for more recommendations.
