  1. the guy who said that this tension is too high is an old man or has elbow issues . I strung my prince spectrum 90 at 65 lb on the mains with the polyspin and  on the cross with gamma sg at 65lb . but ya it will drop around 3-6 pounds in the first day but it will hold from there on


  2. That tension is quite high.  You should generally reduce the tension by 10 percent of the tension that you normally use with synthetic gut.  Luxilon does not lose much tension.  If you're hoping that its going to lose some of that tension, you're probably going to be disappointed.  Those strings are really stiff too, so might even consider cutting them and starting over.
