    I am down to my last tube of Victor Champion and need some supplies for this upcoming season. I've used RSL Classic Tourney and Victor Champion and I found both to be quite reasonable.

    However, Victor North America is claiming they don't sell to public and I am waiting for RSL to get back to me.

    Currently I'm looking at these birds... If I order 50 tubes, it works out to sub $20 per tube. Just looking for comments for users who have tried them:

    Black Knight 6700 Super A Tournament Feather Shuttlecock

    Wilson Top Line 80 Tournament Feather Shuttlecock

    Yang-Yang 99A Tournament Grade Feather Shuttlecock

    Yang-Yang Premier 1 Tournament Grade Feather Shuttlecock

    Your opinion is much appreciated!

    I saw Yumo pro shop (in Richmond, BC) offering RSL Classic Tourney 50 tubes for $1000 ($20/tube). So you might get get it cheaper if it's direct sale to you.

    I emailed RSL North America but they haven't emailed me back yet... I know RSL tourney is $20 a tube but they aren't that durable... Victor just BSed me saying they don't sell to public because my friend just ordered 50 tubes in June and I bought 10 lol!!!

    Personally I would go with the black knights, I find their feather shuttles better then yonex but I use 6650 so I don't know about the 6700
