i believe BG6 is more durable than BG66 while BG66 can produce more power.
i have read some of u giving info about string tension. for those who still dont understand, i will like u to caring out this simple experiment.
1. get a rubber band.
2. then u pull the rubber band til cresent shape. and record the X as well as the strength needed to pull it to Xcm
[attachmentid=1789685]
3. then move the pulled rubber band near ur skin and then release ur finger so that the rubber band will strike u. this illustrate low tension
4. use the same rubber band, now u stretch the rubber band longer to illutrate high tension. repeat 1 to 3.
5. now u compare which 1 is more pain as well as the strength require to pull the rubber band to Xcm
hopefully this help
your example seem like didn't hit the point, we are talking about difference rubber band now, rubber band A is 24lbs rubber band B is 28lbs, if you use N strength to pull the rubber band A to reach X, you need N+M strength to pull the rubber band B to reach X, or with N strength only you can pull the rubber band B to reach X-Y distance only.
smash power not depends on X only; a racket B 28lbs string with X = 1.8cm only could be more powerful then a racket A 24lbs string racket with X = 2.0cm, if racket B can get X = 2.0cm also then sure a lot more powerful then racket A.
indeed your example is more suitable to describe shaft stiffness, if use N strength to band the racket shaft, the smaller the X value mean the stiffer the shaft; e.g : racket A modal 1, X = 1.0cm, stiff; racket A modal 2, X = 1.5cm, mid-stiff, racket A modal C, X = 2.0cm, flex. . .
