Hi guys,
There's always a sticker sticked to the shuttlecock tube.
so far i hav been seeing 76 & 77

Can anyone tell me what's the number for? or does it really represent something?

Shuttle speed. 77 is faster than 76. Central and Southern region prefer 77 where as Northern prefer 76.

What yap.ben said is true. I am in the Northern Region, most people here use 76. We feel 77 is too fast. Don't know the reason how all these began, but once you are used to play 1 speed, hard to adjust since the power you use to hit the shuttle will suit automatically the speed you previously used.

The reason why 76 in Northern region is only a handfull of shops carry 77 and according to 1 seller they prefer 76 as it requires more power for smashing.
