Thank you Holbrook for my Mav Pro E. Through no fault of Holbrook, (UPS issue) my paddle appeared to be lost in shipment. When I notified Holbrook, they promptly sent out a replacement. Both paddles arrived within a couple days of each other, and since I only paid for 1 paddle, I returned the other. My game immediately improved with my new paddle. Having good equipment does make a difference. After a few months and countless games, I noticed a very small crack at the top of the paddle face, probably user error, but Holbrook replaced the paddle under warranty. Thank you again. I've shared my Mav Pro E and Holbrook experience with another player who is now a Holbrook customer. Working on yet another player now, who is in the market to replace their non Holbrook paddle.
I am a casual player, and I absolutely love it! Just played my first game with it! It preformed phenomenally! For a $60 paddle I have no words!!!
i LOVE this paddle. it’s obviously sooo cute, but it plays amazing!! the grip is perfect, the color of it is perfect and doesn’t get dirty like other handles i’ve had. the ball pops off it so smooth. and above all, you’ll just look so cute!! you need!!
I got this paddle (Mav Pro) on April 14 and won an Open division tournament with it the next day, and much of it was due to the balance of power and control (like, real precision in my dinking, my forehand and backhand rolls, and my drives). I was more consistent and had the best offensive dinking day I've ever had. Can't recommend this paddle highly enough!
I recently switched to MAV PRO and won medals in 3 tournaments since the beginning of March. I love this paddle balancing power, control and spin all in one paddle.

Soooo much better than the solid core paddles I have seen new players come to the facility with. I share this and another Holbrook with folks and they all give favorable reviews. IMHO opinion the graphics are really cool. Another great under $100 Holbrook paddle.
I love my new Holbrook paddle! I can reach a little farther, so I get to more balls. It accentuates my natural spin, so much so that one woman who thought she was the berries challenged the shot because there was just too much spin, so the ball had to have a crack! An inspection of the ball showed no break, and I continued to flummox her with the spin from my Holbrook paddle! And yes, at 20 years older than her - I am 79 - I and my partner won the game.
I attended a Lake Norman Pickleball Association Tournament last Saturday, where my daughter Laura won the tournament. She was not using the Holbrook paddle, however. I had a photo taken of me with my paddle in front of the Holbrook Park sign. I hope you like it! Many people there were happy to see that you provided a selection of paddles for the raffle. How nice that was!
Nice responsive paddle with a great tacky grip. Sharing it with other players in my group and I think a few more will be purchased. Probably one of the best paddles for under $100 on the market right now.
I am playing with the 16mm version and it has done a lot of good things with giving me better touch and control, I can provide enough power on my own. The weight distribution really works for me. When getting into hand battles, I have been able to knock back a few shots that made my opponents ask how I got a paddle on the ball. This also comes in a 13mm thickness which is supposed to provide more pop. Love the tacky grip also.
I 'm fairly new to pickleball (tennis guy) and have tried 7-8 paddles. I really like the Centre Court which I've used for a couple weeks, trading on and off with two other paddles I own. It seems very well made. I think I have more touch with it than my composite elongated paddles. The Centre Court has a decent texture to it, that helps with the control and puts a good spin on my shots when I try both top spin & backspin. I definitely will be using it a lot and feel confident with it. The handle is just long enough for me to use my two handed backhand on service returns and the grip circumference is big enough to feel solid in my hand. Of course I've gotten several complements on the style, but it is not style without substance.
This paddle is epic. You gotta try. So much spin and a great combination of control (feel) and power. Love the handle length, allows me to hit two handed shots when I want.
The packaging…..OMG Holbrook.
I recently used this professional paddle in a tournament and was blown away by its performance. The paddle was well-balanced, providing a perfect combination of power and control, which was instrumental in helping me secure the gold medal. As a coach/analyst of professional and amateur athletes, I always look for top-performing equipment to help my players reach their full potential. And this paddle delivers.
The paddle felt great in my hand, with a comfortable grip that never slipped, even during intense play. In addition, the surface of the paddle was incredibly responsive, allowing me to make precise shots easily. This is a feature I look for in all of my equipment, and I have no doubt it will help my athletes improve their skills and technique.
In addition to its superior performance, the paddle was well-constructed and built to last. Despite being put through its paces in the tournament, it showed no signs of wear and tear, and I know it will be a trusty companion for many more games to come.
I highly recommend this professional paddle to anyone looking to up their game and dominate the court. Whether you're a seasoned pro or starting, this paddle will not disappoint. Thanks to this great paddle, I could take my game to the next level and win the tournament - a testament to its exceptional quality and performance. I can't wait to introduce this paddle to my athletes in our formal "Coaches Corner" venue, where I train and develop their skills. So don't hesitate to get yours today!"

Subject: Impressed with Holbrook's Customer Service
Dear Holbrook Team,
I wanted to share my recent experience with your company and express my appreciation for the outstanding customer service I received. About two months ago, I purchased the Mav Pro paddle and noticed that the grit/texture on the paddle face had worn off. I contacted Holbrook customer service to explain the situation, and I was delighted to hear that my paddle would be replaced under warranty.
I'd like to give a huge shoutout to the customer service representative I dealt with, Sarah Schlappi. She was incredibly helpful and responsive to all of my questions and concerns throughout the process. Her promptness and professionalism were outstanding, and I'm grateful for her assistance.
Whenever someone asks me about my paddle, I enthusiastically recommend Holbrook and tell them about the exceptional quality of your products and the outstanding customer service you provide. Thank you again for your help and support!
Best regards, Dan Varney
Perfect, thank you!
Product is great. But box was delivered like it was a pickleball… banged up and less than mediocre tape job, I thought someone opened it before it arrived. First impressions (packaging) matter. The new gear looks great though!
I’m not sure yet…. The first time I played with my stinger my elbow hurt. The second time my elbow really hurt a lot! I iced and didn’t play for 3 days and played again and it hurt but not that bad. I love the way the paddle feels and the reach it has as well as the outer material. I am hoping the elbow is just getting used to it. Do you have any other feedback regarding elbow pain?

Have just begun using my new Holbrook Stinger and have to say, I LOVE it. The surface texture is just what I was looking for…the ply weave provides excellent grip on the ball for spin and control while the solid construction gives plenty of power.
Makes me feel confident that if I can get a bit of this paddle on the ball, I have an excellent chance returning it, controlling my shot and hitting a winner. Love it.
Still trying to figure the paddle out; it just doesn't have that clip sound when hitting the ball.
Sounds more like it's dilapidated,
