Carbon mallet
From 550.00€
The strength and weight characteristics of carbon fiber allow for a mallet design that significantly optimizes the level of play. The result is a set that, in addition to its attractive and elegant appearance, has excellent performance.
The characteristics of carbon fibre allow the manufacture of mallet heads where all the weight is concentrated in the striking areas. This enables optimisation of their moments of inertia (MI of around 150 Kgcm2). This leads to excellent stability in the swing and in the impact with the ball, and consequently in the precision of the game.
The design and manufacturing process of these mallets is very demanding. It took us many years of testing to achieve their optimization, so that they can withstand the thousands of strong impacts that they will have to endure after many years of play.

When buying a first deck, it is advisable to compare what we want to spend with the use and continuity over time that we are going to give it.
To start with, a wooden head with composite caps (brown, black, bacon...) and an aluminum shaft is a good option. A mallet of this type can last a lifetime and is obviously cheaper. We have many wood options, but the choice is guided more by aesthetic taste than by technical taste. Keep in mind that we add internal weights or holes to the heads to achieve the desired weight for the set. On a technical level, it is noticeable to go from an aluminum stick to a carbon stick. If we are going to play with some regularity, we will notice the change.
Other options can be added that improve the inertia of the mallet somewhat, such as brass striking caps. These are more resistant and we will never see a deformation, chipping or fracture due to a violent blow to the rim or similar.
The "top" deck, in terms of performance in the game, is the full carbon deck. Since its price is higher and its performance is not appreciated until a certain level of play is reached, it may not be the best option if you are just starting out or if you are not going to spend a lot of time in the game.
We make the mallets personalized, this not only means that we can put the player's initials on them, but regardless of their type and configuration, we give them the weight and height that the player wants.
If you already have some gaming experience, you may already know which weight is best for you. No problem, we can customize it. But otherwise we would recommend an intermediate weight, around 1.300g. Some people think that the ideal is a mallet as light as possible, but this is not exactly true, even if you have joint problems or similar. The weight gives stability in the swing, launches the ball with less effort and absorbs more of the vibration of the impact. Obviously, you have to find a balance.
You also have to customize the height of the set (head+club). Again, if you are not sure, we would recommend a medium-high height. But it is better if you can calculate it. You can do it in the following way:
- Using a mallet from someone you know or from your club, get into a hitting position as if you had the ball in front of you. You need to be comfortable. Measure from the ground to the top of your hands. This will be our reference. If you don't have a mallet handy, you can even use a broom or something similar.
We can provide you with further advice or any clarifications you may need. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require this.

Choose the correct height for your deck.
There are some tips to keep in mind when deciding how high your mallet should be, which is why in this video we show you some tricks to measure how high your mallet should be before purchasing one.
Weight distribution in the deck is important.
In this video we show you some criteria that can you help to assess whether the weights are well distributed in your croquet mallet to correctly adjust the stroke in your game.
The divisible stick in the croquet mallet.
At JC Croquet we have perfected the mechanism that allows the head of our mallet to be separated from the grip, a feature that allows us to have a wide variety of customization.
Below we show you in this video how it works and the great strength and weight that the connector of both elements supports.
The weight of the deck as a starting point.
The amount of movement that the mallet head has is what will determine the distance and hitting of a ball, which is why the weight of the ball is so important in our game.
In this video we show you how to analyse the types of strokes in croquet and the influence that the weight of the mallet will have.
