Swinger Wood Pickleball Paddle
The Swinger Wood Pickleball Paddle is an extremely sturdy and well-priced, albeit very heavy, wood paddle. Crafted from a resilient, five-ply hardwood, this paddle is sure to last throughout countless games. Many YMCAs, schools, recreation centers and other groups purchase this paddle for beginners and to use for loaner paddles. However, its heavy weight makes it best for adults. The face of the paddle is embellished with a visually-interesting, grid-like pattern. This paddle has a white rope wrist strap, which aims to keep the paddle in the player’s hand and off the ground. The handle itself is wrapped with a black grip. The handle overlaps the end of the paddle’s face, creating a small ridge on either side of the paddle.
The Swinger paddle weighs a hefty 9.7 to 11 ounces, with an average weight of 10.3 ounces. This paddle has a small grip size which can easily be built up to make it larger. The paddle’s handle is 4-1/2” long, and the overall length of the paddle is 15-3/4”. This paddle has a wide face, measuring 8” wide.
The Swinger Wood paddle is a terrific and nearly-indestructible paddle.
Actual grip sizes may vary up to 1/8".
Good large paddle, but light Reviewer: Don from Nampa, ID United States This is a larger paddle that is 5 ply thick. It used to be 7 ply. The 7 ply gave a bigger 'sweet spot' which I liked, however it was a little slower to swing due to its weight. I like the 5 ply, but far prefered the 7 ply. Overall, I prefer the wood paddles over the graphite.
Solid wood paddles Reviewer: Paul Forget from Fort Frances Ontario Canada I bought these paddles for a community center pickleball club and they are perfect for this type of use. They are almost indestructible and quite cheap. Although they are on the heavy side it's exactly what I needed.
review Reviewer: James Tucker from Kissimmee, FL United States good value for price, great for beginners. An ounce or 2 heavier than paddles costing 3-10 times as much
Awesome paddle for the price Reviewer: Dan Zukowski from Puyallup, WA United States Exactly what I was looking for. Great price for a sturdy paddle. Love the wrapped grips, vs the plane wood handles we've been using.
Paddles Reviewer: Joseph Nolt from Lancaster, PA United States I am VERY pleased with the quality and durability of these inexpensive paddles. These are great for all ages and beginners to first-try playing Pickleball. I have even heard from seasoned PB players that these are often used outside when the wind blows harder. Good stuff!
Review Reviewer: Steven E. Morrow from Layton, UT United States This is a very basic paddle we are using to train new people, and the paddles work just fine. I was showing an active raquetball player the game and he was good enough that I started using some spin, and the paddles worked great for this. Product shipped the same day we ordered it. Great customer service.
