Xam Badminton Birdies Shuttles~Goose & Nylon Feather Badminton Shuttlecocks (6 & 12 Pack/Tube) Tournament Series shuttles for Club Matches ~ Highly Stable & Durable Shuttle Balls

I purchased these shuttlecocks a few weeks ago and have played with them several times. I immediately noticed that when I took out several of the shuttlecocks from the tube, most had some damage to one or more feathers. One had a broken feather and several others the feathers were interwoven rather than laying smoothly one on top of the other. After using them in play, I found that these seldom make it through more than 1 - 2 games, and I am not a particularly aggressive player. Also, it is somewhat annoying that the round sticker on the inside of the head seems to always fall out during play. I have used both Yonex (obviously more expensive) and one other brand (about the same price as these) available on Amazon, and these have been the least consistent and least durable feather shuttlecocks I have tried so far.

Goo for the price. The birdie is comparable to good brands like Aeroplane. However, the quality is inconsistent. Some of them don't have straight flight path. But still barely qualify for intermediate / advance plays. You will need to groom the birdie continuously after every point to last it longer.

I don’t expect it to fly and last like a more expensive one. The feather not as straight, after a few smash the birdies fly slower. At least I can use it to warm up.

I like this product.

These shuttlecocks are durable and a great value for the money. My grandkids are having fun for hours and this is a great way to get the kids away from their computer. They love it and it holds up great.
