$9.99
Introducing Gosen G Tour 1 , a medium firm co-polyester that rewards big swings with exceptional control. The low power level will enable you to swing bigger when adding pace and spin to your shots. Gosen has designed G Tour 1 with silicone oil coating so that strings snapback during contact in order to increase the ball's rotation. A great option for intermediate and advanced players looking for a comfortably firm control string that will keep the biggest strokes on target.

What players say
Player feedback on Gosen G Tour 1 16L/1.25 is limited to a handful of Tennis Warehouse customer reviews, but it is consistently positive. Reviewers treat it as a cheaper, more comfortable alternative to RPM Blast that still delivers spin and control, though one user found it dead at higher tension and another had crosses snap during stringing.
Best for
- Players who find RPM Blast too stiff or arm-jarring
- Full-bed poly users wanting spin and control
- Confident, high-swing-speed players
- Budget-conscious players wanting a poly upgrade
Pros
- Comfortable for a spin poly, several reviewers report no arm discomfort at full bed
- Good spin and control, compared favorably to RPM Blast by multiple reviewers
- Holds tension well over multi-week use per reviewer reports
- Low price relative to premium polys
Cons
- One reviewer found it quite dead when strung at 56 lbs
- One reviewer had crosses snap during the stringing process
- Very small number of player reviews, no independent lab or video testing found
- Feedback is concentrated on one retailer's site, so it may skew positive
