    I wonder if the feeding shuttle exercise in the last minutes in this video
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjYKGMTcb3E
    can be substituted.

    Sub the shuttle with tennis ball (or any ball that's good enough, even the "bouncy" balls) and catch the balls rather than hit the shuttle.

    would my reflex and reaction become faster?

    This is because I think my friends can't be a good feeder if I use the shuttle.

    You can certainly try, but I don't think that tennis balls are really a substitute for a multi-feed.

    Another option is to do more one-shuttle work, if your friends find that easier to feed.
