Questions

Is there a Dallas, Austin or Houston paddle? The Texas paddle is the one for Dallas, Austin and Houston. ARTI makes no city paddles.

Is it tournament legal? Yes, in USA Pickleball sanctioned tournaments. It is on the approved paddle list as TEXAS.

How does it play? Its 16mm core gives more control and a softer touch for dinks and resets than a 14mm core.

Texas paddle or Mastery Elite: which should I choose? Choose the Texas paddle, or any 16mm State Collection paddle, for more control, a larger sweet spot and original art. Choose the 14mm Mastery Elite 1.0 for the most pop and speed in the ARTI lineup.

Is it a good gift for a pickleball player from Texas? Yes. It puts original burnt orange western art on a carbon fiber paddle designed by ARTI Pickleball in Dallas, Texas, and it is on the USA Pickleball approved list as TEXAS, so it is legal for sanctioned play.
