Recently bought a secondhand Textreme Tour 100-310 and strung it up with gamma syn-gut 17g at 50lbs last Friday (Feb 2022). Hit with it and could not put it down, played two sets 7-6 and 8-9. The racquet is very spin friendly and low-med power, I can swing it out but needed to spin it else will flew. It felt like a softer PS97. The string movement was crazy, either next time string it with 16g or tighter tension. The racquet weight was 316 unstrung and no overgrip.
On Sunday, played singles with a higher ranking player, most of the time lose to this player. Bought my PS97 and nothing else. The mini set result was 0-3, 0-3, 1-3, and 3-2 (a mini set point at 2-1). After 3 lost, won the last mini set. The PS97 strung with old soft 16g tfibre at 50lbs. The string moved but not as much as in TT100.
Weight them players racquet up and here are their weight: PS97 345g, TT100 338g, CX16 334g, CX18 332g. All have leather grips and overgrip. The PS97 starts at 315g without leather grip and 16g string. The CXs have Tourna leather grip, probably thinner than others though added 3g lead, and different 17g string (CX16 gamma syngut and CX18 babolat syngut).
