I can tell you it is not your stringer's falut. Because you smash a lot, play long hr, miss hit once a while. Should I keep going?
after more than 700 votes, i can't believe more than 6 months has the most votes. that's amazing economy.
I swear, everybody breaks strings way faster than me. I hit hard often, slice plenty, and my strings last ~1 year (bg65). Everybody around me is breaking bg65 in around 3-6 months.
what tension is your 65's at though? after a year they would have decreased in tension quite a bit. do you play nylon or plastic as well?
They're at 24lbs. After a year, they feel the same as BG 80 strung a month ago on another racquet (also strung at 24lbs). I mostly play plastics, occassional feather (which sucks cause feathers feel a lot better)
Really, it depends on the strings... Like, if i use BG-6 with 2pounds tension, that will last me FOREVER If i use BG-66 with 30pounds, i can break it in half a set... But 6 months as being the top? I'm quite impressed... It usually lasts only 2mths or so, and then the strings start to loosen up a bit... Like rubber! The more u use it/ stretch it, the more elastic it is... xD
My BG65 lasts forever. Had it for so long that i forgot when i had my racquet strung. My BG66 lasted for only about a week. i just got BG 9, and is expected to snap soon.
My BG-80 is going on it's 5th month now. It's amazing My BG-65Ti lasted like a year... It just wouldn't break, but the tension didn't hold so I switched.
Badminton string Well, I am a school team player. I use Nanos 9000. I strung it with the Nanogy string at a tension of 24lbs.(that suits me best) The string lasted me 6 months before snapping. It is good for smacking. Now using BG 70 at 24lbs. Had beeen using for around 2 months still going well. My advice to intermidiate is to us BG 70(alrounder) and for beginners and that those lloking for value BG 65(Durable and cheap).
I used NBG98 at 24lbs/26lbs on my NS9000X and it lasted 6 weeks so i am impressed with the NBG98 durability compared to BG66 which lasted 4 weeks at the same tension. I am going to try BG6 later and see how that compares.
