Verdicts
Engage Encore Pro EX
A soft, light, extremely forgiving paddle that has quietly become the default recommendation for players over 60.
Six Zero Quartz Control
A control build in the Double Black Diamond tradition, only lighter and quicker. Twist weight and sweet spot are the standouts; power is deliberately mid-pack.
