Quick answer

Anna Bright plays the JOOLA Scorpeus Pro V — her signature, control-focused paddle.

One of the top women’s players and a fan favorite, Anna Bright is a common search: what paddle does she use? Her signature JOOLA Scorpeus Pro V.

I’m Jason Regan, a USA Pickleball Ambassador for North Central Massachusetts, tracking pro paddles across the tours.

What is Anna Bright’s paddle?

Bright plays the Scorpeus line — JOOLA’s most control-oriented widebody shape — in the newest Pro V version, which adds JOOLA’s Flex Foam and frame technology for extra dwell time, spin, and touch. (She has also had Scorpeus Pro IV and Scorpeus 3S signature versions.)

Why does she use it?

Bright’s game is built on control, quick hands, and consistency rather than pure power. The Scorpeus’s wider, control-focused shape and larger sweet spot fit that steady, fast-hands style perfectly.

Should you use Anna Bright’s paddle?

The Scorpeus is one of the more forgiving, control-friendly premium paddles, which makes it a solid choice for players who value touch and consistency — and more approachable than an elongated power paddle. Find your fit with our best paddles guide.
