i dont get why would you want a smaller diameter striking surface? whats the advantage?
I like it because it's lighter, allows for more subtle touches/passes and helps with close control.
I don't like it because it's really hard to get a consistently accurate AND powerful shot.
Normal mallets feel really clumsy after using small, light ones but they are so much easier to shoot with.
Depends how you want to play.
