      Tiger (Experience:4-5 years) Exactly what you would expect from a Grade 2 approved shuttle

      I usually use YONEX STANDARD 2 and the like, but as a small adventure I tried buying GOSEN shuttles.
      It said Grade 2 approved shuttle, so I wondered what they would actually be like, and my first impression was, "Isn't the feather quality poor?" That is because the feathers felt a little thinner than YONEX. But once I actually used them, the flight was good and they were more durable than I expected. I also compared them with AEROSENSA, which is likewise a YONEX Grade 2 approved shuttle, and although the feathers felt different, the durability was practically no worse at all.
      Beyond that, people have their own shuttle preferences, so if you are totally ok with GOSEN, I think it is worth buying.

      Guben (Experience:6-10 years) Often compared to Company Y, and I can't help comparing it either

      What I felt when I hit it was that it was "light."
      Company Y's shuttles somehow give you a feeling of solid contact with the racket, but
      maybe it was my technique, at first I couldn't tell whether my power was getting into this shuttle.

      But after I'd gotten past my long layoff for a while, there were no particular problems.
      Durability is decent, and as long as you don't pick the wrong seasonal speed number, the flight is good enough too.
      You can buy it cheaply online, so I think it's ideal if you want to compare it with Company Y.

      Ichiro Pricier, but high-performance.

      The feathers look a little flimsy, but when you actually use it, the flight is decent, it is easy to use, and durability is sufficient. It is a bit pricey, but it has the performance to match. What I especially like is the feel of it zipping out, which is very satisfying.

      Badoko Good for practice

      It is a Grade 2 approved shuttle, so I cannot find anything particularly bad about it. However, the feedback at the moment of impact feels a little lighter compared with YONEX. Once you get used to it, it is not a problem. Durability is decent and there is no variation, so it is good enough for practice.

      Miyuki A shuttle for intermediate players.

      A standard-type shuttle that can be used widely, from small tournaments to practice. Its distinguishing features are that it doesn't break easily and has a wonderful feel. The price being slightly above average is a downside, but the quality is good enough to match. I think it is a shuttle for intermediate players.

      Yuji Its stability stands out.

      It is a bit expensive, but the feel is solid. The shape of the feathers looks a little odd, but when you hit it, it flies without any problems. There is a wide range of types, so you can choose one to suit the conditions, and it seems good enough for matches too. There is nothing especially surprising or outstanding about it, but my impression is that it is stable in every respect.

      Yuya About my impressions of a dozen GOSEN NEO FEATHER EMERALD

      It's not as famous as YONEX, but the types are divided in detail by use, and each one is named after a gemstone, which is cool, so it's the shuttle I always use. I think it's a type of shuttle that intermediate and above badminton players can use consistently in practice.
