The NEW 'Encore Pro' Pickleball paddle provides players with advanced characteristics desired by the top nationally ranked players in the world. Optimized for the ultimate in control and power. A larger 'sweet spot' than the legacy 'Encore' and an enhanced feel when the ball makes contact allows players to have even more control over the ball. The 'Encore Pro' maintains the 'specialized skin' of the legacy Encore that maximizes the allowed limits of 'surface roughness'. However, 'surface roughness' is only ONE piece of the puzzle. Designing a paddle from the very beginning to have the 'skin' work in conjunction with the 'core' (harmonized) optimizing 'POWER', 'CONTROL' and 'BALL PLACEMENT' completes the puzzle. The engineering of the Encore goes further, by maximizing the amount of time the ball stays on the paddle (a concept originally developed by EngagePickleball), enabling the soft feel you need to command the soft (net) game. The Encore line of paddles have always been about 'control' and 'ball placement', and having the perfect paddle to do just that (what you want with the ball) whether you hit 'hard' or 'soft'. Only the 'Encore' line of paddles. We call it ControlPro Technology

Pickleball paddle
It’s light weight. The texture on the face gives me good action on the ball.The grip also gives me great control.

Big game changer
I am a senior female player. I can hit the ball harder and with more control than with my old basic paddle. Looks like we will be buying another one for my husband.

Incredibly light and a joy to use
The racket met our expectations. It’s very light and helped to change my game. It’s a joy to use.

Don't buy through Amazon
This paddle didn't work for me...handle is too short. Engage has a no-questions-asked 30-day return policy, so if you buy directly from them, you can easily return it. Buy it through an Amazon seller and good luck. When I sent a message to Racquet Galaxy asking what I needed to do to return it, I got a copy of the general Amazon return policy (and clearly it's not in the same conditioned as received because I played with it twice).

It's just okay...
Build quality is sub-par for the price, as the tape around the top of the handle isn't staying in place and the sweet spot is not very large...Paddle face goes from sweet spot to sour spot very quickly and sour spot is most of the paddle face, outside the printed target graphic...Others are probably better...
