Optional extras to the Basic Mallet

Shaft Types

• Carbon Fibre/Wood (CF5)

An octagonal, hollow, straight-grained Pine handle fitted on the carbon fibre shaft. The handle is lightweight and very strong, giving the mallet a low centre of gravity with an easy swing and ideal for those players that prefer the feel of wood or a tape grip. This shaft weighs approximately 8 oz (227 g).

• Carbon Fibre/Duplon (CF6)

A carbon fibre tube fitted with a full length Duplon sleeve. The lower part of the Duplon is round in section and merges into an octagonal shape for the main part of the handle.

• Carbon Fibre/Duplon (CF7)

This carbon fibre shaft has no Duplon grip on the lower section and has an aluminium socket. This shaft is ideal for golf croquet.

• Carbon Fibre/Duplon (CF8)

A full-length carbon fibre tube fitted with a lightweight octagonally shaped Duplon foam handle. This shaft weighs approximately 5 1/2 oz (156 g). All these shaft types are removable, rotatable or changeable.

Head Types

Most mallets are square in section but other shapes can be manufactured. The most common alternatives are;

• Boat shaped base

• Rectangular section

Wood Varieties

Australian Myrtle, Burbinga, Chechen, Cocobolo (Rosewood), Ebony, English Yew, Indian Rosewood, Kingwood, Leadwood, Lignum Vitae, Mexican Rosewood, Olive, Purple Heart and Satinwood.

Weighting

• Peripheral weighting

This is a method of reducing the weight from the centre of the head to the ends by using lead and brass end plates.

• Adjustable weighting

This system allows the player to easily adjust the weight of the mallet adding or removing any number of five lead discs, each weighing approximately 0.75 ozs.

• Combination

Both of the above options can be combined in one mallet.
