Jaques Competition Croquet Mallets
It was John Jaques who first made the game of Croquet popular in the mid 1800s
and, a century and a half later, Jaques are still the leading manufacturer of
Croquet equipment.
The mallets on this page are all high quality strikers suitable for serious
players and competition. The range can be confusing so we have tried to
simplify it by providing this guide:
| Handles |
| Hickory |
Ideal traditional wood for croquet mallet shafts. |
| Hickory handle |
The handle favoured by John Solomon, the greatest croquet player
of our time. Octagonal. |
| Spliced Hickory handle |
The insertion of a cane splice strengthens the octagonal shaft and
gives extra 'zip' to the shots. |
| Hickory Roller Grip |
These octagonal handles have a Jaques patented roller grip for use
when playing roll shots. |
| Wedge |
All the handles on this page are fitted with Jaques secret wedging
system, lessening the chance of water penetration in damp conditions. |
| Diamond Carbotec |
High quality wind-on grip. |
| Heads |
| LV - Lignum Vitae |
the hardest wood known to man. This extremely heavy wood is also
self-lubricating. |
| Rings |
The best mallets are fitted with brass rings at either end of the
mallet head. These help protect the mallet faces as well as providing
additional weight. |
| Tuftex |
An extremely hard material. Mallet heads faced with Tuftex will
last much longer. |
| Square/Round |
Some players prefer round heads, some prefer square. Professional
players tend to favour square heads as the slightly narrower width
makes 'hoop' shots easier. |
