Gamma Pickleball Paddle with Poly Honeycomb Core, Graphite or Fiberglass Surface, Honeycomb Grip, Durable Paddle for Beginners, Professionals - Premium, Lightweight

Just started pickleball this summer. I have ordered aluminum, fiberglass, and graphite paddles in the traditional shape. Was curious about this one and now it's my favorite by far. Reasonable price, light weight, large enough handle (though probably not for two hands), and the elongated shape helps with the reach. No problems hitting the sweet spot either. Perhaps it's just psychological, but it feels good in the hand and hitting the ball. It is USPA approved and made in China. No cover but the packaging was good, no damage. Delivery was fast! I decided on the Gamma brand because a friend broke his old paddle and Gamma sent him a new one.

This is an excellent pickle ball racquet. I spin my balls, and this racquet has the best “built-in” texture on the graphite face which is durable and allow great control and spin the same time. You cannot beat this price for an elongated advanced racquet for pickle ball. I love the yellow design that is professional and not distracting. The wraps are also just a bit tacky to allow good grip with minimal effort. My racquet weighed at 7 5/8 oz which is light with good movement. The pop is just right as well. I highly recommend this racquet

I’ve played with a few high end paddles like the Joola Ben Johns and I legitimately think this paddle is 90% as good.We’ll see how the hitting surface holds up over time but out of the box it plays as well as the best paddles out there.After only playing pickleball a few months (after a lifetime of tennis) it didn’t take long to feel comfortable with the Gamma Discovery.Shorter handle so definitely for one handed players. The length is great for that extra reach on smashes and stretch volleys.

The paddle had to be defective. The handle bent where it meets the surface of the paddle, it’s to bad. I enjoyed it for 6 weeks before it broke. But it’s to expensive to be a throw away paddle that only lasts for 6 weeks.

Great paddle and the grip is great.
