Hi guys, Can i have more info on yonex AS5 shuttles. I heard they are better than Yonex AS10. Is that true? Or is AS5 the lousiest shuttle in yonex range?
i've seen AS-2's. i haven't tried them, but if the general idea applies, it should be worse than the AS-5's you mention.
Thanks chickenpoodle for the reply.anyone has any idea what is AS5 standard in yonex range of shuttles? Because in local sportshop, AS5 cost more than AS10.
i did a bit of digging around, and the AS-XX shuttles are goose feathers(which we all know), while the AS-X series of shuttles are duck feathers. AS-5 shuttles are IBF approved just as much as AS-50's are.
I guess the AS5 i bought were a problematic batch. One feather of the shuttle always break off after a few shots.
Is there AS15 in the market? Or do u mean AS5? If you are refering to AS5, yes, it is made of duck feather.
I have a AS-5 sitting on my desk from 20 year ago. I hit it once a year to make sure it is still alive. Also, it is a piece of my memory.
nice.........I have a birdie on my desk too, BUTthe birdie on my desk is replaced every time i decide to pick it up and smash it, or i take it to UBC!!!
But from my experience, the flight pattern seems to be very bad. Just after a few hits, the shuttle will like "shake" in the air.
i got the AS-15 from BadmintonAlley and for a review...check out dink's shuttle review, its in there... but in short, decent quality, I bought it because it was on sale... overall, its worth the money
