Careful attention to the selection of materials and in manufacture ensures outstanding durability under the tremendous shocks shuttlecocks receive at impact with todays high-power, high-speed racquets. Yonex Feather shuttlecocks are tested against other brands to make sure that they demonstrate consistent recovery, flight trajectory and speed performance. Testing at their research and development facility shows that 80% of the Yonex feather shuttlecocks fired down court hit a 25cm target, whilst the other brands tested needed a 75cm target area to demonstrate the equivalent performance.

Below is the actual picture of the shuttlecock.
