    He uses BG66 most of the time. Other than that he also uses BG66 Sharp.

    Would a high hit just above the sweet spot count as a misshit? LD?

    pfft dont blame your racquet :p

    i had a racquet strung by a good stringer with a 0.63mm string at around 27lbs last year and the string never broke after 10months, while as when I had two racquets strung at shuttle-house at 27lbs, one of the strings (bg66m) broke in 10mins and bg80 broke in a month. Had one of the raquets restrung with bg65 at 22lbs and the strings broke in about one month ( it was a spare racquet ).

    find a good stringer.

    Ahh but Im in a area where there's like no badminton. Sherbrooke , quebec , canada. it's kindA GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( I respect the guy who strings it. But i donno. I had broken my bg 80 yellow and the top teo top cords at 23 lbs of tensino and elft it like that for 3-4 days without cutting since I don;t know how to properly cut strings. Im scared as if i hit the frame with the bird really hard. Will it kinda like totally break my racket. Do i have CD warranty agianst bird hitting?

    I had BG-80 strung at 28lbs last for more then a month before I cut it because it was losing tension, and I mishit quite often. Also I frame hit and non of my racquets broke or string broke so far. Must be because I'm weak. xD

    Well, a good stringer can help, but s/he still can not over take the nature. I remember read that LD or BCL used to use BG66, and he broke 3 strings in 1 match. I assume their stringer(s) are no where near to be lousy, but high tension + thin string simply meant to be broke.

    Serious, many players tend to blame the stringers when string breaks. They never look at how many mis-hit, broken gromments they had to begin with. :rolleyes:
