Full Review
Head Lyon represents the pinnacle of natural gut strings. Made from premium cow gut, it offers unmatched comfort and feel that synthetic strings simply can't replicate. The string provides excellent power and a plush response that many professional players prefer. However, natural gut strings break down relatively quickly and require frequent restringing (every 6-8 hours of play). The premium price point makes this string best suited for serious players who prioritize comfort and feel over durability.
