External Review for Butterfly Tenergy 05 on November 5, 2013

Zillion reviews on this rubber at this point in time.

When it first hit the market (think around 2009 early on...) it had WOW factor to it definitely. It was the best tension rubber by a mile.

Times have changed since those days. Now days we have many rubbers with similar performance and many with better performance.

Most companies can produce high end rubbers now days in there own way and style. Some produce hi speed tensors, some produce hi spin tacky rubbers, mixtures of those two and many other top performers. Today is more of a price question then anything else for me. It is very hard to justify any Tenergy prices at this point. Xiom, Stiga, Tibhar and so on produce just as good or even better rubbers then Tenergy at half of the price. If BTY was not such a huge company i am not sure if those prices would hold at all.

Plz do not get me wrong in regards to Tenergy. This rubber is phenomenal to play with. In a way it is a another classic (Sriver, Mark, Hurricane....).

So to sum it up :

Pros: one of the better performing rubbers on the market (in all aspects).

Cons: you can get better rubber for less money.

Recommendations:

I would recommend this rubber to the players that dont have to buy sheets themselves.
I would also recommend this to a time travelers who can go back to 2009 or so and be the first in line to have the playing edge without glue.

Definitely would not recommend this rubber any more to people who actually have to purchase their own sheets.

Enjoy TT and have fun:)
