Honest answer, but I have not done any of the actual science (not even weighing them): Milwaukee poles seem to have a thicker wall. All things being equal, the result of this should be obvious. They will be heavier, but stronger. You have to decide what you want from a polo mallet - light vs heavy, strong(er) vs weak(er). Like Lucky does with his heads, maybe you'll find a place for both in your mallet arsenal (I brought one of each to Karlsruhe).
