Tyson McGuffin Magnus 3 16mm

The JOOLA Tyson McGuffin Magnus 3 16mm is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. The combination of core and face materials may offer a balance of power and control. Its elongated shape could provide a larger sweet spot. Weighing 8.1 oz with a 5-inch grip, this paddle falls into the mid-weight category. The swing weight of 119 is considered high, which may provide more power but require more effort to swing. The 16mm core thickness is generally associated with control-oriented paddles.

This paddle's drive speed (56.4 mph) and volley speed (36.5 mph) rate highly, placing it in the high power and pop categories (97th percentile for both). The spin rating is also above average (2020 RPM, 73rd percentile). The twist weight of 6.3 may provide moderate stability on off-center hits (50th percentile). This paddle might be suitable for intermediate to advanced players looking for a blend of power and control, particularly those who prioritize drives and volleys. The shorter grip length may not be ideal for players who prefer two-handed backhands.
