The firmer Yonex co-poly: crisp, controlled and low-powered, for players who drive the ball flat and want it to stay down. The 1.20 gauge adds bite and touch but notches sooner than the 125, so heavy topspin hitters should expect shorter life. It holds playability well for a firm poly, but it is not kind to tender arms. High 40s to low 50s. Softer Yonex option: Poly Tour Rev.

Best for: Flat hitters, control. Feel: Firm, crisp. Gauge: 17 / 1.20. Look at the gauge on the pack before it goes in the racket.
