I've got Simonis 860 tourney blue installed on my 9 footer and am looking to put the same on my recently purchased bar box. Though I am curious about the 860 HR, I will likely just choose the regular 860, as I am a bit gun shy to change up with no opportunity to try the HR first before purchasing.
I can say that the normal 860 plays and wears great. Mine is about 4 years old now (and has been heavily played on) and is just now causing me to consider replacing it in a couple of months. I also like the tourney blue, as I do think it is easier on the eyes.
If I were you, I would make sure that whatever you pick, that it is worsted clolth.
Congrats on your purchase and good luck. Welcome to the forum by the way...
