  • The BEST new paddle on the market!
Color: White Edge
I'm a tournament player and recently switched to the Professor PhD and love what it's doing for my game! The shape of the handle feels so comfortable in my hand and the extra length is helpful for my two hander. The heavy grit of the carbon face is giving me more spin on my drops. I like that the logo and wording on the paddle surface is not raised, so it doesn't impact the ball like some other brands. I bought one with a black edge guard and one with a white edge guard. The white guard is my favorite look. This paddle is well worth the money! ... show more

  • Great paddle

  • Best overall paddle for control and spin
Color: Black Edge
Saw the reviews and was a little skeptical but for the price it's hard not to try. Spin got way better over my Selkirk invikta and control is on point for drops, dinks and even drives for $99 you cannot find a better paddle for the job

  • I had such high hopes, but...
Color: Black Edge
I'm a lifelong racquet sports fanatic who has taken up pickleball seriously for the past 6 months. As a rapidly improving Intermediate, I own over a dozen paddles, and enjoy playing pickleball daily with my variety of racquet styles and sizes. I was excited to try out the raw carbon PhD, which is Professor's flagship model. It came nicely boxed (suitable for gift-giving) and well-protected. The inclusion of a paddle cover would have been a nice bonus; but to me that's not a deal breaker, as many $200+ models don't add a free cover. I removed the PhD from the box, gave it my favorite Continental shake-hands grip, and did a few air swings. Disappointingly, the paddle felt swing-weight heavy, while the handle seemed bulkier than the advertised 4.25". Sure enough, my measurements confirmed this first impression. (See photos.) Paddle weight was 8.3 ozs (vs. 8 ozs in the company description), and grip circumference was 4.5" clearly more than the advertised 4.25". I found the paddle too bulky, and the thick handle, with its annoyingly pronounced edges, too uncomfortable to hold and swing. Therefore, I made the decision to process a return, without even trying it out a single time on the courts. It's a shame because I was able to pick it up at a discounted price on Amazon Prime Day. More importantly, from every other aspect, the PhD looks like a solidly built item, with very gritty surfaces to enhance spin. It is also very pleasing aesthetically, with its Joola Hyperion hybrid contour, and attractive graphics. For these reasons, I feel it only fair to give the DGYCASI Pro a higher than one-star rating. I sincerely hope this startup company improves and upgrades its premium model with a better, less bulky grip, in which case I would be happy to give it a thorough usage test and review. ... show more

  • Husband loves it
Color: Black Edge
My husband took up pickle ball a couple months ago and wanted to have his own racket. He says it performs well and it’s light to handle and it keeps him out of the house ha ha
