Wilson Feather Tourament Shuttlecocks

I don't know why these are tournamnt shuttlecocks, they are pretty cheap. I will usually take out two or so from the tube and after less than an hour or so of semi-intensive playing, the birdies are completely dead with feathers all over the court. I will usually end up going through maybe 4 or 5 birdies each time I go to play. That's almost five dollars for a few hours. That's just not worth it to me. I would much rather prefer to go the plastic way, even though it's definitely not the same. As long as it's just for fun plastics work fine. These feathers are more for playing intense games with really good players which I don't get many chances to do. I would say, if your just looking for a good time, go with plastics. And if your looking for feathers, buy yonex.
