Played on clay at temperatures around 17°C.
I was entirely convinced by this string (except by the color). But the color doesn't really matter. The string plays great. Good control, spin, and power. Hardly any loss of tension after 4-5 hours of play. The string is also quite easy on the arm. It has a good chance to become my new standard string since it is a bit better than the MSV Focus Hex. However the Focus Hex has the better price/performance ratio.

Great poly with excellent tension maintenance and durability.

It provides great control, though it seems a bit spongy during play. Nice touch. My current favorite.
Nevertheless I'll do a direct comparison with the Alu Power Rough soon.

The Poly Force provides better feel, which is a bit more spongy than the Alu Power, but without getting springy.

Compared to the SPPP, MSV Focus Hex, Oehms Black Pearl, and Topspin Cyber Blue, I think this string is too expensive, but it is on the same level in terms of playing characteristics.

I found the Pacific Poly Force more comfortable than the Force 17. I do prefer the transparent orange color of the Force 17, but the Poly Force plays much softer and more comfortable.
The Big Banger is more wire-like and less arm-friendly than the Poly Force.
