important information:
It is recommended for novice players to start with an artificial bowel.
Intermediate players are advised to use a hybrid bowel prosthesis or multi-filament together with a polyester.

Advanced players are advised to use the right type of strings to play with:
- Polyester for players with high spin and control, and players with fast strings attached.
Multi-filament for power and sensation players.
A hybrid for players who want to combine the benefit of the two genres.
