    Hey everyone,

    People always complain nylon shuttles are too fast, landing too far and such, so I just wonder will getting mavis 370 SLOW be a better choice then medium? s will fly less slow and far? I'm in UK and I think most people use medium 78 speed shuttles.

    do you guys know if the slow speed nylon ones feel lighter then a feather, and fly slower and more accurate drop? or are they too slow?

    Never played with Slow plastics before. However if the medium ones that you are using are travelling to near or beyond the base line during a test stroke from the opposite baseline then you may need to get the next speed down. That should be the measure of the shuttle speed that you need to go on (between 53 and 99 cm from the base line).
