We develop high-performance pickleball paddles through a rigorous R&D program that combines a scientific approach with subjective feedback from players to create some of the best paddles money can buy. All of our paddles are made in the USA and are USAPA-approved.
Let customers speak for us
from 248 reviewsI have loved my Rouge2 Carbon Hybrid for some time and was skeptical that this Rouge3 would be better. I was wrong! Better balance and overall feel for the ball is the result with the Rouge3. My Rouge2 is still going strong, so I expect the 3 to last as long. Good job Players!
The cover seems to be the part of my order. Paddle seems way to light.
Cover fits nice and looks great. I do wish there were more color options but it's about protection not aesthetics.
I've been using Players paddles since the very beginning when you could customize build your own. The Rogue3 is once again another top quality addition from the paddle to the packaging. I tried the paddle yesterday. I'm not sure how it compares to my Rogue2 advanced gel quite yet. It did however have good power and touch.
Light, power and control all in one paddle. I have two other Rouge paddles. This is the first elongated one. It gives me just a little more reach. Keep up the great work.
I love the feel of this paddle. I feel like it gives me good control while still packing some punch on power shots. I am very happy with it.
I suffer from tennis elbow, so I tried the Rouge 2 paddle—and it completely resolved my elbow issues. Naturally, when the Rouge 3 was announced, I jumped at the chance to get one, especially since I focus on spin and the Rouge 3 is built for it.
The spin is phenomenal. I’m getting more rotation on the ball, which forces additional errors on serves and returns. To fine-tune the paddle further, I added 3 grams of weight near the lower edges on each side, which helped reduce twist.
Hands down, best paddle for the money on the market! Keeps all the great innovations we've come to love in the previous Rogue versions and dares to improve: new hybrid shape maximizes sweet spot and allows for 2 handers, thicker core adds stability and absorption for off center hits and touch, upgraded surface is sweeeet for durability and spin. Plus it's gorgeous AND made in the USA and you can always expect their great customer service. Bravo, Players!!!
Just adjusting to the new paddle and finding it very responsive. It's got good capacity to dampen the volume of the ball and power to achieve great serves and pick up some low shots. Light to handle and while early days, it's been a winner!
Rogue paddles are just a cut above and this new model looks amazing. Will be working it out hard in a couple of weeks when we resume our winter pickleball season in the SoCal desert.
Really like my Rogue 2, now am starting to enjoy my Rogue 3. A very durable, quality paddle.
It took adjustment because it is lighter than Rogue 2 but I really like it! Easier on a bad shoulder.
The ball pops off it very well when I am up at the kitchen. Spin is somewhat better than the rogue 2.
