Yonex BG65 Badminton String

The world's best-selling badminton string for a reason. BG65 runs a thicker 0.70mm gauge that shrugs off mishits and clamps better than anything else in the Yonex line. If you snap strings every few weeks, this is the one that finally lets you string-and-forget.

Repulsion is moderate and the sound is muted compared to thinner offerings, but the feel stays consistent from fresh to month four. The default choice for high school players, club regulars, and anyone who'd rather play than restring.
