Natural Gut Tennis Strings
This type of string is used much less than it was a few years earlier. The main reasons are the cost, durability, and weather conditions.
The performance of a Natural Gut string is superior to any synthetic string produced.
The message is simple, if you want the best results use Natural Gut.
Caution: gut strings and damp conditions rarely mix successfully even with protective coatings. One solution is to have two identical racquets: use the gut strings when it is dry, and the synthetic strings when it is wet.

String Gauges
The best choice is probably 16 gauge (1.30mm) as it provides a good balance between performance and durability.
Gauge 17 (1.25 mm) is an alternative choice for maximum response
