What were the best deals last year?
Last year, we saw great pickleball savings on Black Friday from top brands like JOOLA, CRBN, and Selkirk. It's great to see those big names returning for Black Friday 2024, as well as plenty of newer brands like Friday and ProXR Pickleball.
Most of the deals from last year have changed for 2024, and some are even better. For example, Six Zero offered 20% off select paddles last year, including their bestselling Six Zero DBD Control. This year, though, they're extending their 20% discount to their entire site.

How I choose the best pickleball paddles
I choose the best deals on pickleball paddles based on a few factors. Firstly, is it a paddle that I recommend and has someone at Pickleheads actually tested it? Is it featured on one of our best pickleball paddles lists?
Next, I check if the price has gone down by much. Is it a deal that's actually worth shouting out? I've been tracking paddle prices for the past couple of months to see which ones are truly lowering their prices.
Lastly, Pickleheads has exclusive discount codes for a huge range of paddles, gear, accessories, and clothing. If you're able to use our code in conjunction with a Black Friday deal, you can save even more money.
Bottom line
If you're shopping for pickleball paddles, gear, clothing, or accessories on Black Friday 2024, I hope I've helped you find some great deals. Don't forget that you can combine some of these deals with our exclusive discounts for big savings.
