Important Notes on Speed, Weight, and Playing Characteristics
-
Reference Values (Small)
All information on speed and weight in our product descriptions always refers to the small blade. This serves as a reference point for the other sizes.
-
Speed
The larger blades (Medium and Large) have a lower speed compared to the small blade. The differences are measurable and can be noticeable, depending on the player type.
-
Weight
The weight difference between the three sizes can be up to 20 grams. This difference is noticeable and influences the swing characteristics, balance, and overall handling of the blade.
-
Hitting Area
The main advantage of the medium and large blades is the enlarged hitting area. This leads to greater forgiveness and a more secure ball feel, especially on off-center hits.
-
Sweetspot
A larger blade can also have a slightly larger sweetspot (the optimal point of contact), which can further improve control and precision.
In Summary - Which Blade is Right for You?
- Small: Balanced feel, control, reference size.
- Medium: Larger hitting area, more forgiveness, slightly less speed, significant weight difference.
- Large: Maximum hitting area, highest consistency, lower speed, significant weight difference, ideal for defensive players and beginners.
Our Recommendation: Choose the blade size that best suits your individual playing style, experience, and personal preferences. Take into account the described differences in size, speed, weight, and hitting area.
