A big step up from the starter paddle

My wife and I were given a pair of Signature paddles (and a set of basic paddles). We took the pickle-ball classes in October and then we switched over to the Signature when we went for open play in November. The grip is a little small for me, but wearing a glove helps take up most of the slack. The sweet spot is much larger on this than the original paddles. It doesn't hit quite as hard as the beginners, but it adds more control and a bigger sweet spot. A good tradeoff in my mind. I'm probably a 3.0+ and I haven't even found hints of it's limits.
The Best Pickleball Paddle Ever!!

Andrew Periasamy - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
I been looking for the pickleball paddle since I joined after COVID two years ago for the pickleball group. At first when I joined I bought the paddle that is 4.5 inches grip size and played one handed. After that when I improved the game, I up my game to doing two handed and I was looking for that is more than what I have. So with the grip size of 5.5 that looks like a tennis grip handle, I was able to play two-handed front and back. This is the best paddle I ever had in my life!! Also I got it for a special deal instead of paying more than $100.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pickleball is the best new sport in the nation and this paddle is a great one to use to play it! It is made of a really good quality. The sweet spot on the paddle is quite large and the ball bounces off it nicely. The grip is nice and soft, while still being nonslip. The tape used for the grip is made of good quality. The paddle itself has a nice design and will be the envy of everyone on the courts. I received an incentive to write this review.

soziekristine9899 - 1 year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great pickleball paddle. I bought it as an upgrade to my first paddle. I have been playing for a while and I am excited for this upgrade. I like the bigger surface size. The course grit on the surface is so much heavier than my other one. It is easy to keep my grip with the handle and is comfortable in my hand. The design is bright and colorful and the frame is durable. I love this so far I received an incentive to write this review.

soziesusank21 - 1 year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazingly well made and great quality pickleball paddle. This Franklin paddle is certified for use in games and tournaments by the USA Pickleball Association, so that means it’s legit! The MaxGrit technology is supposed to help the player achieve maximum traction when hitting on the court. This racket is a little heavier than some of the others but at almost 8 oz, I wouldn’t consider it “heavy”. I received an incentive to write this review.

sozietray1213 - 1 year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Franklin sports is known for their racket so we were super excited to try this one for pickle ball overall we really like the design of this paddle and the colors that were included. This racket is a nice quality racket and it also has a nice grasp as well. The quality of this is nice and we feel like it would last a long time it is lightweight and easy to hold. We also feel like when the ball hits it bounces nicely over to the other side of the net as we were trying this out overall we feel like if you’re looking for a beginner set this is the perfect option for you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pickleball racquet has a fantastic cushioned handle. I feel I have an average size hand and included a picture of a ruler for better comparison. It fit great in my hand and was easy to swing around. The face of the racquet felt textured. My hope is that it helps with controlling the ball. The ease of it being lightweight is great for my wrists and why I want to get into pickleball. I received an incentive to write this review.

Bought this paddle for my 10-year old who is learning the game - way better control and stability for him versus a cheaper beginner paddle. Since there are no really good “kids” paddles this was recommended to me by a coach
