Back to the staple of my channel, string reviews. If you enjoy these review, please SUBSCRIBE and LIKE the video to help it gain more exposure. The pennies I make here on RUclips help a little to allow me to purchase more strings 👋🎾 Overall I was very impressed by both Tourna Big Hitter S7 Tour and Tourna Big Hitter Silver (Round) as tested in this video. For people who respect their hard earned money and want the most bang for the buck plus more, Tourna strings are an excellent choice.
Well done TK! I've watched many of your videos. I couldn't agree more with your scoring. Which by the way is the best I've seen. Many of the strings I've tried reflect your method of evaluation. Glad you liked both these strings!
I normally use O-toro. Decided to try this string out recently and I thought the strings had low power/spin/pace compared to O-toro. I thought feel was okay, some ball pocketing. Definitely will be sticking to O-toro(I used Hyper G before switching to O-toro for reference)
I love the big hitter silver 7 tour version and the way it grabs the ball. I watched your video but did not understand the differences besides the pop. Also, it would be good if you could tune down a bit the practice sound and volume up your voice. Thanks for the review
I have experience with tourna black breaking while stringing I also have red about 40 min break of strings. People should be careful with reels I don’t know if some are defective and if they are going to change it for them.
@ yes I red a comment yesterday about breaking it for 40 min and with big hitter black has experienced it myself. But on the video I saw you are using set not from reel, i dont know :)
They are very very similar, but I would give a very very slight edge to SuperSmash in the lively and comfort categories, no noticeable difference in control.
Toro Toro has a more muted thump feel, whereas S7 provides more feedback and signal and feel more aluminum-like. Both are superb, it simply depends on each players preference.
Great review and thanks. Any idea how this compares in Playability Duration compared with Solinco Confidential? Confidential performs consistent up to the point of breaking, but would love a round option with similar characteristics.
I played with Confidential for about a year, but it's been a while. Bit Hitter certainly has better durability and tension maintenance, but Confidential is not too far behind in these categories as it is also quite durable. I would rate Confidential overall as a B+, simply for the fact that I find round poly's to be more predictable in launch angle accuracy
Hello TK! I am interested in using the kirschbaum super smash orange and I am wondering if you would advise to use this string with a hybrid setup. If so, what type of strings would be best to pair with the Kirshbaum super smash orange?
I think it would be best to try a full bed first. It's an excellent string for consistency and provides a little extra pop, although I recommend you string it 50+lbs or higher. In lower tension it can get mushy after 3-5 hours. It's an excellent string for aggressive baseliners from my perspective.
These come to mind first and foremost, but know that no poly provides anywhere near the additional pop compared to many Multi-filaments. Poly's are all about control, but some give a little extra and Zero is at the top of my list from anything I've tried to date. 1. Restring Zero 2. Head Hawk Power 3. Kirschbaum SuperSmash

Thanks Koos, much appreciated. Always seeking to evolve the process bit by bit

While I may not agree, It's good to know people are finding O-Toro to be a suitable string for them. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the review
Thanks for the suggestion. Sometimes I overlook reducing the audio settings from the background hitting.
@TK-Tennis as far as the comparison between silver tour 7 and round one?
Please try Topspin Cyberflash. It's similar to Tourna Silver and Silver 7 Tour.
Great review. Might be worth a try since I can't get to love any particular string in my Pure Strike VS
It's such a well prices string that it's worth trying 🤷♂️
I have experience with tourna black breaking while stringing I also have red about 40 min break of strings. People should be careful with reels I don’t know if some are defective and if they are going to change it for them.
Is this talked about on TalkTennis Forums?

Hi. Comparing with Super Smash, could you please inform which is more confortable? Which offers more control? Which has more Lively feel? Thanks!
They are very very similar, but I would give a very very slight edge to SuperSmash in the lively and comfort categories, no noticeable difference in control.
Thanks for the review! Appreciate the format and insights. How would you compare S7 to Toro Toro?
Toro Toro has a more muted thump feel, whereas S7 provides more feedback and signal and feel more aluminum-like. Both are superb, it simply depends on each players preference.

Hey Tri-F, Why do you want to hybrid it, what are you seeking to gain?
@@TK-Tennis I don't particularly want to hybrid it, but I'm wondering if its a good idea based off your recommendation.
@@TK-Tennis Also I'm an aggressive baseliner who wants to maintain consitency while hitting hard from the baseline.
I think it would be best to try a full bed first. It's an excellent string for consistency and provides a little extra pop, although I recommend you string it 50+lbs or higher. In lower tension it can get mushy after 3-5 hours. It's an excellent string for aggressive baseliners from my perspective.
Besides Restring Zero, what other polys give you that extra pop?
These come to mind first and foremost, but know that no poly provides anywhere near the additional pop compared to many Multi-filaments. Poly's are all about control, but some give a little extra and Zero is at the top of my list from anything I've tried to date.
1. Restring Zero
2. Head Hawk Power
3. Kirschbaum SuperSmash
The sound of you hitting looks out of sync with the video
It often is on the string review due to some frame loss from the complex video capturing and editing required.
