Engage Pursuit Pro MX 15.2
The soft Engage feel in a long-handle control package.
Discontinued. Engage no longer makes this paddle. You may still find it used or on clearance. It was replaced by the Engage Pursuit Pro2 MX.
Our take
Pickleball Central's lab notes and Pickleball Studio coverage both support the plush-control reputation. If you loved old-school Engage feel, this is where it lives now.
- Best forPlayers who love soft Engage feel and want a long-handle control paddle.
- The catchCan feel a little head-heavy and slower than quicker hybrids.
