Gosen G Tour 3 16L/1.28 String Black
Line: G Tour 3
$9.99
Following on the heels of G Tour 1, Gosen releases one of the most comfortable co-polys on the market. It's called G Tour 3 and it is ideal for the player who wants a comfortable control string. With its low-powered response, G Tour 3 will enable you to take massive cuts at the ball when going for more power and spin.

What players say
Player feedback on Gosen G Tour 3 16L/1.28 Black is thin: one Tennis Warehouse customer review on the exact product, plus a few reviews on the same string's 17-gauge sibling, all five stars. Reviewers describe a comfortable, arm-friendly co-poly that still catches the ball and delivers spin and power, and one player used it as the cross string in a hybrid for comfort and value. No YouTube, Reddit, or forum discussion of this exact string turned up, so this is a weak signal rather than a broad consensus.
Best for
- Players who want a comfortable co-poly without losing spin or control
- Players switching off a stiffer poly who want more arm comfort
