I just got my Frantic 2 days ago and I have already broken 3 strings. I dont know why because I usally dont break any. It wasnt because of a bad bind because one time I wound it up and it still broke. ---

I have dinged my M1 very bedly (Its still dead smooth though!) because a 50/50 broke on me, that’s the only string that has ever snapped on me other than a YYE string. I hate 50/50s, I’ve never had polys break on me (Exept for YYE strings.) and they are really good for me. If you haven’t tried polys, I highly reccomend doing so. ---
