These birds are OK. I go through about 1-2 of them per set. But obviously if you're not playing a serious game, you just continue with an old and battered shuttlecock. But for the price? Yonex Aerosena's go from $25-$50 and you'll go through about 1-2 shuttlecocks per set as well (we're talking about the new rules to 21 points, rather than the old rules to 15 points). I never tried humidifying the birds before playing with them, as some have suggested. But I do live in Miami and have left the shuttlecocks in my car and it doesn't seem to have changed. Overall, it's not bad considering the price you pay and Victor is a pretty well-known brand. I'm not disappointed, it is what I expect when playing with feathered shuttlecocks.

Great value for money and really nice birds, take quite a bit of punishment and good speed, especially for mid level players.

So I don't know anything about tournaments or actual pro badminton.
All i do is smack thoose with my cousin on weekends for couple hours to break some sweat.

I received couple of generic shuttlecocks with the set of rockets. They were horrible. First of all made all of plastic that deformed in shipping, second of all they were way to light to play with them outdoors.

Victor Gold are made with real feathers which adds a lot to the aeorodynamics of it, and are heave enought to play with them outdoors on even with a little of wind.

I can't tell you how durable they are in the real game, but what I can tell you is that mine are treated pretty harsh, often hit with the wrong part of rocket, they land in gravel or mudy grass and are even stolen and chewed by my Great Dane ... after all of that one shuttlecock is still enought for a few hours of play on weekend.

That said and happy with the purchase, and because of the price/quality ratio those will be my first pick for future purchase.

These birds are really good. We have been using them for about 3 month and still look like new. Highly recommend!

I play occasionally but wanted something that would endure my layman skills and still last forever. It did the job.

I'm not a junior player, I play 1-2 times a week for almost 6 years now. Lot of shuttlecock I used, this is one of my favorite (BTW, for some reason I do not like Yonex one, their area is in racket, not shuttlecock).

The prices is good, the shuttlecock is good, I used 1-2 for 1 man's double game at my level, if play with junior you'll need more.

We play whenever the weather permits and these birds have great flight and feel. They have been as durable as an feathered birds we've ever used. If you are a pro you probably already have a favorite brand, if not then I recommend these as a great value.

My son and I are enjoying the shuttlecocks. They are good to play with. Only thing I don't like is it seems weaker than other models. We will use them up pretty quickly, and need another set.

It works well, with very good quality, except that it is a little expensive. If there are some discounts, it is a really good bargain

The price is right, particularly using Prime shipping. The birds are a little fast, but I like that. They hold up fairly well.
