Read the buying guide: speed, feather or nylon
Which speed should I buy?
Shuttles fly further in warm air and shorter in cold air. As a rule of thumb, choose a lower speed (75–76) for warm halls and a higher speed (78–79) for cold halls. Speed 77 is a common starting point. Altitude also affects flight, so test in your own hall.
To test a shuttle, stand on your back boundary line and hit a full underhand stroke upwards, parallel to the side lines. Under the Laws of Badminton, a shuttle of the correct speed lands between 530 mm and 990 mm short of the opposite back boundary line.
Feather or nylon?
Feather shuttles give the flight and feel used in club and match play. Nylon shuttles usually last longer, so they suit beginners, schools and casual hitting. We compare the cost per session in feather vs nylon shuttlecocks, and explain speeds in our shuttlecock guide.
Standard shipping on shuttlecocks is free Australia-wide, or pick up from our shop at 15 Wallace Avenue, Point Cook VIC 3030.
