Tips on how to select a pickleball paddle:

A heavier pickleball paddle has more mass so it can provide more power, even with a slower swing; also often has a larger sweet spot
A lighter pickleball paddle is easier to get where you want it quickly and is easier to swing faster; more maneuverable
If playing mostly outdoors, using a mid to heavier weight pickleball paddle helps push the ball in windy conditions.
Textured and Graphite paddles provide added touch & ball control.
Power is typically less important in pickleball than accuracy & control
