Which paddle should you buy?

Pick the Maverix Havik Pro X if…

  • You want faster hands — lower SW (116.91 vs 123.47) means quicker maneuvering at the kitchen.
  • You want a bigger sweet spot — TW 6.47 is more forgiving on off-center hits.
  • You're price-conscious — about $34 cheaper after PLAYBOOK discount.
  • You prefer the hybrid shape — different feel/reach/sweet-spot profile from the elongated.

Pick the Mint Mon Ami if…

  • You want more power — SW 123.47 is 6.56 points higher.
  • Your game leans all-court — this is tuned for that style.
  • You prefer the elongated shape — different feel/reach/sweet-spot profile from the hybrid.
