    What yonex strings work best with plastic birdies? what tension strung?
    We are required to play with plastic for the season at school.

    I would recommend BG65 or BG70Pro.
    Tension would be your decision.

    i'm using BG65 at 27lbs for my racket. just wondering, what kind of plastic shuttles do you use. do you use the HL Condors? the schools in the CIF-SS are required to use those.

    what would make a particular string more suitable for plastics?
    durability? thats the only thing i can think of...

    here, we use more plastics than anything else, and we're still all using bg66, 80, 85, 68ti, etc. i'm assuming we're shortening the life of such strings, but is the damage going to be that much more significant?
