We love a good craze - especially one that is wholly dedicated to a good time. That is what Pickleball is really all about - fun, camaraderie, and shared joy! It's a fast-paced game that is available to players of all abilities. We never turn down an opportunity to hit the pickleball court, and it's the perfect Pappy Hour activity!
So of course we jumped at the chance to make a custom Pappy & Company Pickleball paddle with our friends from Short Court. Based in Charleston, SC, Short Court makes elevated pickleball equipment for modern players with a nod to traditional tennis. Our Pappy & Company X Short Court Pickleballpaddle is USA Pickleball approved, featuring a textured carbon graphite surface with a versatile mid-weight and thickness to deliver spin, speed, and touch.
Custom made with a reversible double-sided, retro-inspired Pappy & Company design, the colors complement the heritage tennis look and feel. Our paddle is both fun and functional. Even better - through our Bourbon for Good™ initiative - a portion of proceeds from each paddle benefits Hop on a Cure and their efforts to raise critical funds for ALS research and awareness. So Hop on a court, grab a drink to dink with us!
Our Pappy & Company X Short Court Custom Pickleball paddle was made in partnership with our friends from Short Court. Founded in Charleston, S.C., by two friends and avid racquet sports enthusiasts, Ned Johnson and Neil Thomson, to create modern pickleball equipment with a nod to classic tennis design that pairs performance with style. Tapping into the idea that pickleball is meant to be fun, they consider themselves "Wimbledon, with a wink."
We kicked off our first Annual Pickleball Tournament with Short Court this summer...and it delivered on the fun and philanthropy! Learn more about this special partnership.

Notes from Short Court:
The carbon fiber textured surface provides superb spin and control with unparalleled shot precision, over and above other brands' fiberglass models. The honeycomb core technology delivers excellent pop and an energetic return with its large sweet spot. As a renewable resource, the polypropylene honeycomb core is 100% recyclable.
At sub-8ozs., this paddle allows for crafty "flickability", which promotes the roll volley, and rapid-fire hits.
A portion of our sweepstakes proceeds go directly to supporting Hop On a Cure, an organization focused on ALS awareness and research towards finding a cure.
Very high quality and looks great!
I like it, but for the price I thought it was for a set. It’s my fault I didn’t read it correctly, but I got a couple entries for the 20 year pappy giveaway. Fingers crossed, it’s almost my 20th anniversary and would be an awesome way to celebrate with the best bourbon in the world.
