The quietest pickleball racket I've ever seen.

I use this for Pickball because our HOA spots are too close to some houses. Our unit tried to ban pickleball. This McGregor paddle is the quietest paddle in the world. Those neighbors in the yard stopped fighting with us. I recommend coating them with polyurethane because they don't have a strong protective layer for such a low price.

Pros
  • Annual Trial
Cons
  • Change

Single wall paddle for fun.

Bought this racket to see if my family would like to play table tennis on the same wall. One wall - ENJOYMENT. These paddles are bolted together and heavy, but you can't beat the price. We play with a Penn Purple racquetball to get you started and sometimes we use a blue A1 paddleball, but this ball is small. You can't go wrong with these paddles, they're great value and you can find out if you like the sport without breaking the bank.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Some little things

Paddleball racket but vintage is better

It was very difficult to find a paddleball racket on Revain, Pickleball apparently took over. And when I first got it, I was happy to see that despite being a light and flimsy paddle, it could actually handle a game of paddleball. If you're looking to save money instead of buying a carbon fiber paddle, you're much better off buying a vintage Marcraft paddle on eBay than buying this one. But for use with a handball against a handball court it will get the job done.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Good weight, feel and response.

I have two high quality graphite blades that I use. The Macgregor wooden paddle is actually lighter than both. The shocks have a solid feel, not the cheap paddles I've bought before. Even the shots are firmer and more precise than the high end wooden paddles I've had for a while. The only thing I would recommend is increasing the length to 17 inches which is the limit for a standard paddleball paddle. Otherwise, it's a fun racquet that can be played with a racquetball or a tennis ball. Nice…

changed assembly. still feels good and strong.

Just got two of these in the mail. It is very stable in the hand and the workmanship is beautiful. The only difference is that the product image shows two rivets/screws on the handle and it appears the ones I received have been changed from rivets to staples which can also fail but only time will tell. You have 4 brackets on each side for a total of 8 brackets. They may have upgraded it for the better. But they really need to update the stock photo. The paddle face is approximately 9 inches…

Pros
  • Good item
Cons
  • Good but not great

Did you know that nowadays you can only buy it online?

Native to Los Angeles, paddle tennis is as California as it is Venice Beach. In fact, Venice is the epicenter of paddle tennis. or a set of racquets. For those of you who don't know, "Paddle tennis is a game modeled after tennis that has been played for over a century. Compared to tennis, the court is smaller and has no double lanes, and the net is lower. Paddle tennis is played with a hard racquet rather than a strung racquet, and a pressureless tennis ball is used in conjunction with an…

Pros
  • Hands Free
Cons
  • Very Expensive
