String (Reels or Sets)

Coaches often have to decide against sets or reels. Many like the convenience and accountability of sets; however, they like the cheaper cost of a real. Have you left a reel at a tournament or your players do not measure the reel properly?

A reel of Tecnifibre polyspin cost $35 for a 660 feet reel (20 string jobs) equaling $1.75 package. One package would cost $3.85 The result is if your team is wasting half the reel you would come out at least even with the cost of sets.

Moral of the story: buy reels unless you have the luxury to purchase individual sets.
