    Hello Badminton Central!

    I was wondering if it's alright to have Ashaway 67 strung at 24lbs for plastic shuttles. I would also like to know about the durability factor as well.

    Try it and you'll see how it ends up for yourself.

    I know if I did that, I'd probably break it in two weeks. For some people it could last a month or more. Depends on how you play and how hard you hit.

    That used to be my go to string and tension for plastic. I'd have to cut it after 4 months when it eventually lost tension. Still that was very durable for me.
