    Yes superman is right. There is no social badminton this Wednesday night as the college requires the use of the gym.

    Which radar gun are you guys using and what is your experience with that unit? I'm looking to buy one for my club too, and there are so many different brands/models available. Little confused...

    Sorry for the late reply, we don't use Badminton Central much these days. We moved most of our discussion to our Facebook page after some of our more vocal players got banned for their colourful vocabulary.

    We got the Bushnell Speedsheter III Speed Radar Gun with the LED display and tripod kit. We were hoping to get close to Tan Boon Heong's 421km/hr or at least Fu Hai Feng's ingame 332km/hr. But sadly after many tries and sore arms the best we could achieve was around 160km/hr. Remember that our club does not have beginners and all players are Open to C grade players.

    The fastest point is when the shuttle leaves the strings of the racket head but I think the radar gun has trouble picking up the shuttle at that point. I have tried the radar gun with cars and tennis balls and the results and very accurate but the physical nature of the shuttle slowing down so fast makes in hard the radar gun we have to accurately measure the speed of the shuttle. Either that or we are really smashing at those speeds. If only Tan Boon Heong was around I could calibrate my radar gun.

    Special Pre-holiday session - Wednesday 24/4/13

    It's a public holiday this Thursday...so we are thinking of having a one off social badminton session this Wednesday at our usual place.


    Most social badminton places on Wednesdays are pretty busy and being a holiday the day after, we know this week will be extra busy..... so we have decided to run a session for this Wednesday only

    If you are interested in attending, let me know by sending me a message or post your confirmation.

    Please remember that our normal criteria of players above C grade may attend.
