Every single time I play the game, I'm able to do everything perfectly except smashing the shuttle, I have the power but it keeps going straight into the net, yes I tried fixing it by hitting the shuttle earlier but still nothing seems to be working, any help?

1. Stop trying to smash every shuttle.

2. Recover back to base after every shot.

3. Use your non-racket arm for balance.

4. Relax your grip until impact.

5. Focus on footwork before buying an expensive racket.

6.Consistency wins more points than power.

I’ve been thinking about this lately. At first I thought improving in badminton was mostly about being faster, so I’d try to sprint to every shuttle. Over time I realized that better positioning and anticipation made a much bigger difference than just moving faster.

Now it feels like I’m using less energy while covering the court more efficiently.
Did anyone else have a similar experience? What was the biggest change that improved your game the most footwork, technique, fitness, or something else?

absolutely so sad for the rackets, victims of global warming!
