The Pursuit Pro MX is a high-power paddle favored by Engage’s pro team due to its aggressive and powerful characteristics. With a higher swingweight and lower twistweight, it offers excellent ball carry despite its slightly smaller sweet spot. Unlike thermoformed paddles, the Pursuit Pro MX retains a softer feel upon impact, making it appealing to players preferring comfort. While its poppy nature may be challenging for some players to control, those transitioning from other thin core paddles may find it easier to adjust. The paddle’s launch angle is on the lower side, and its extended 5.75″ handle may be excessive for some users. Overall, the Pursuit Pro MX is best suited for experienced players seeking enhanced spin, power, and feel in comparison to other thin core paddles, rather than beginners or those accustomed to different paddle types.
