    Exactly what is sounds like; softer strings will feel softer, hard feeling strings will feel closer in quality to hitting with a wooden plank.

    That's all relative terms. The more important issue is, to pick the correct tension which yourself feel comfortable.

    Ping or Pong sound from your strings

    Hi lee728,

    I just think that... :):):)

    When your strings hit the shuttle and say "PING", then your strings are hard.

    And when your strings say "PONG", then they are soft.

    But I could be wrong ???

    Cheers... chris@ccc

    Ping-Pong is Table-Tennis, you are right !!!

    Hehehe... this is funny.

    But we are still talking about Badminton, not Table-Tennis. ;););)

    Perhaps, I should have said for the sound property... high pitch and low pitch.

    :):):)

    soft strings flex more when you hit and make it feel softer

    is ok, no need to apologize. the most important is after you place some questions to discuss, pls join in to discuss and get the answer or answers that you need.
    asking me? err....
    can anyone prescribe which are soft or hard?
    examples : BG-66, BG-70, BG-80, BG-85, BG-65, BG-65 Ti, BG-68 Ti, NBG-95
