    I would like to get general opinion here. What is your favorite brand/model of shuttlecock?
    Please mention the brand/model and also share your view on its flight performance and durability. Thanks.

    Best Performance wise has been RSL No.1 for me. unfortunatley quite pricey.

    When you come down to a normal range, there are so many brands, they are similar in play.

    has a very detailed shuttlecorks review done by our fellow bro Netasia. Great job!!!! but so far for me......my personal preference are space arrow (silver, S$20) and victor champion (green, S$22). both brands have great durability, nice flight n lastly quite reasonably priced. somemore both are IBF approved tournament shuttles. :D

    RSL No. 1 gets a bad rating from me. It simply doesn't last.

    I still prefer Gosen Gold or Sea Lion Red.

    My Favorites shuttle for al time is the Gosen Gold. Good Shutlle but quite pricy for student like us. Stick to RSL silver which is more cheap.

    my group's favorite shuttlecock is the Aeroplane G 1130 (pointed-tip) green (model name). Very durable and reasonably priced. Around 600pesos (or US$11.00 at 55pesos per US$1.00)

    Yonex AS-40 for now :)
    However, for cheaper shuttles, I would pick Victor Tourney.
