Glad I switched
"I switched from an expensive other brand paddle to the Owl to help the pain in my wrist but go so much more. Yes, instant relief in my wrist, but also the paddle does the work. It is works for soft and for hard shots, it has a big sweet spot, and yes, it is nice to play without the sound. You will be surprised how much you enjoy playing with a quiet paddle. It felt a little head-heavy to start, but I put on another grip, which balanced it out and now I am glad of that extra solid feel. And a reasonable price. Try it."
