Carlton AG-8 shuttlecocks are Grade 2 goose feather shuttlecock used in clubs and tournaments. The AG-8 shuttlecocks are 2nd highest grade of shuttlecocks from Carlton. Carlton shuttlecocks are known in Europe for their flight, feel, quality, and durability. The shuttlecocks use first/special grade goose feather shuttlecocks made to the highest specification in the industry.

Due to the dry weather in the United States (especially in winter), these shuttlecocks are highly recommended to be humidified 2-3 days prior of usage to increase durability.

Recommendation:
To prolong the durability of the shuttlecocks, we highly recommend that all shuttlecocks be humidified 24-48 hours before usage. This will help increase the life/durability of the shuttlecock by up to 70%. Please check http://www.shuttlecock.com/Resources/Shuttlecock/hydrate.php for tips on hydrating shuttlecocks.
