HEAD Hawk Power Petrol 200m Reel

HEAD HAWK POWER

HEAD Hawk Power is the most forgiving member of the Hawk family. It keeps the round, control-oriented profile but softens the core and adds pocketing, so the ball leaves the stringbed with more depth and energy. It comes in petrol.

It is the power option in the Hawk range — easier depth than the original Hawk, still more controlled than a shaped power poly.

On-Court Performance

At impact the feel is fairly soft and connected for a poly, with good ball pocketing that helps you judge pace, depth and spin.

Depth is easier to find than with the original Hawk. Balls stay deep without a full commit, which helps on defence and on days when the timing is not there.

Control does not suffer much despite the added pop — the round profile and consistent feel keep the trajectory predictable.

Spin is available on committed swings but is not the string's focus. Tension loss is typical for a softer poly.

Who Should Use It

• Intermediate and advanced players who want a poly with more depth

• Players with medium swing speeds who find control polys underpowered

• All-court players who value pocketing and feel

• Players moving up from a multifilament who still want free depth

• Anyone who likes Hawk but wants more pop

Who Should Not Use It

• Players who want the lowest, most locked-down trajectory

• Big hitters chasing pinpoint control on full swings

• Players who need a genuinely soft, arm-safe string

• Beginners with short, slow strokes

Hybrid Setups & Performance Adjustments

Power
Already the power Hawk — string toward the low end of the range for even more depth.

Control
Raise tension 1–2 kg or put a firmer poly in the crosses.

Spin
Pair with a shaped poly in the mains for extra bite.

Comfort
Hybrid with a multifilament in the crosses and lower tension.

Tension Stability
String mid-range; very low tensions shorten the consistent window.

Durability
Move to the thicker gauge for frequent breakers.
