I'm just a layman, so I can these shuttlecocks more likely inadequate rate. I had been warned in advance, the shuttlecocks not very durable were, so the permanent play with it could be quite expensive. Because I was curious but the extent to which playing and flight behavior compared to "plastic" is different, I have the Hudora shuttlecocks ordered. I think that it was worth it in any case! Even a novice like me can clearly feel that the balls "Different" behavior, can control "differently". It takes a familiarization phase, but makes tremendously fun. One should definitely try again. Unfortunately, it is true that the shuttlecocks in the shortest time springs must leave. After hardly a game you can be so zerfelddert, they and they must be replaced "eggs". So even though the price is first favorable, which can very quickly prove to be a mistake. In order to bring however times Abwechselug into play, it is my opinion according worthwhile in any case. :-)
