Q: As a beginning stringer who is trying to build a part time business, what strings should I be stocking?
A: This can be a complex issue and the market can vary some from coast to coast but if you start with what is popular and a proven leader, you can't go wrong. The latest issue of RacketSportsIndustry surveyed the 'Top-Selling" Tennis strings by volume for January-March 2012. The results are synonymous with several classic long time performers along with a few fairly newer strings. The List is as follows. 1. Prince Synthetic gut with Duraflex, 2. Wilson NXT. 3. Babolat RPM Blast. 4. Wilson Sensation. 5. Prince Lightning XX. The 5 strings mentioned will give you a starting point and cover a variety of string types. In this group alone you have a polyester string, several multifilaments and a basic solid core/nylon synthetic gut string. Tomorrow I will answer a question related to string guages and expand this list.
