Are you a badminton champion?  Or are you more interested in cattle?

I'm more of a badminton person myself. I like the speed - shuttlecocks have a higher speed than many balls in other similar sports.

However, they always run out of feathers by the time I'm done playing a set.

True enough. Some poor rooster lost it's feathers twice! Mind you, it also resembles the shuttle of a loom, which is how it got its name.

I didn't know that.  I'm not a scholar, just a pro badminton player so the history is over my head.  Definitely superior to tennis, but less intense than squash.

I'm no pro, but I played as a kid. We loved it as we could play in the yard or at the beach. And in Winter we played at an indoor court.

Playing outside makes it about wind and not skill though.  Inside better

That's true, but we played outside anyway. Probably because I'm from the UK and the game originated in British India, so there's a bit of a connection there.
