I once had one of those used on me and I swear to God it felt like being hit with a side of beef. Pixie, you are absolutely right about some of the larger and heavier leather strops.

My first efforts were made from Pine and large; too large to be handled effectively, "Like a frat paddle"! From there I tried to come up with a workable size and let me tell you finding some one to patiently bend over while I tried to come up with a pattern was not easy. With some help from "Nikki" on the now defunct "Blistered Butts" site and her Hubby we hit on the paddle size using a coffee can lid. From there my paddles got progressively smaller and lighter with a few exceptions. I made a few Poplar wood paddles for Firmhand but found them to be too large for my tastes. Eventually I found a paddle shaped like a Milk bottle and made from fairly light wood to be easy to handle and have a very stingy after effect. These were used on the AEG site and the daniels TSC site before it closed. Pixie has a version of one I made in pine by her request. I also make a light, thin 15" long X 2" wide, "Spanking Stick". I was surprised to find the models had a love / hate relationship with them and from my personal experience if you want to make a girl squirm and squeel these will do it. The type of wood you use make as big a difference as the paddle itself. Hard wood, (Maple, Oak) tend to bruise much more quickly than a softer wood, "Poplar, Pine, Black Walnut) Regardless of the size of the paddle. Finally as a spanker I know the final control is in the hand of the one wielding the paddle. I quickly found a tight grip and firm / hard SWAT will hurt in unintended ways. What works best for me is a light but controlled grip and allowing the paddle to "Bounce" at the end of the stroke. After all your not driving a nail with a hammer, your spanking a bottom with a real person on the other end gving you the gift of submission. So there is my two cents!

I imagine that is somewhere in between. I’m glad you enjoy the site!! KaraJ – Yes, the bath brush is a very traditional domestic implement. I’ll fully encourage your fascination and send you mine. >:) Sam – I’d agree that the somewhat thinner paddles can be safer, though of course proper use and technique is always necessary. Marcus – The rice paddle looks like an oversized wooden spoon! Ouch! This nice sided design looks like it would be perfect for a spanking. http://www.wallysworldofwood.net/images/Rice_Paddles.JPG Dani – Sure, I understand. Thanks for commenting.  Erica – I much prefer leather as well. Some really thick strops can scare me as much as frat paddles because they are so heavy that their impact is similar to a paddle. AK – Yes, Veronica is one of the people I trust with just about any implement. Mitch – I haven’t felt lexan that much to know for certain about the bruising, but I sure agree with you about the sting!! Kim – I’m a big believer in safety first, no matter what. Whether it’s fun, erotic, severe, a scene, or real discipline, it has to be safe! Linde – Oh those accidental shots to the bits and pieces can be awful!! I’m very intrigued with your tale of the ice cream spoon. Write me. Jan – Well at least you have a paddle then. :) Schwarz – I’ve seen leather paddles that have the soft side, but I’m not sure I’ve seen a wooden one. It might be nice as it can be used to tease the senses and would take out a lot of the sting if a swat were delivered with the cloth covered side. Might be fun to never be quite sure of what was coming next. Serial Spanker – Certainly sounds like that naughty miss may have earned her punishment after a week of daily misdeeds. Isolde – How neat that you make such associations with implements! I like how you think. 2Good – Nope, there’s no getting out of it with Veronica. Lilyanna also did a school paddling scene that was even more similar to Principal’s Office than my own. We were not inspired by the show though, but by two real life incidents from naughty Miss Lilyanna’s past! Annapurna – All very key points in ensuring that the spanking experience is both safe and positive for both spanker and spankee. Dean Osborne – You certainly sound like you are very knowledgeable about paddles! I think those ones with holes also hurt a bit more because of the additional edges that come in contact with the flesh. Makes for some pretty polka dot marks though. Laurent – Thank you. :) I’m glad you enjoyed it. Dr. Ken – Eeep! I’m hoping the good doctor will decide that a hand spanking and perhaps some leather will be in order … unless my bratitis becomes a serious issue. Phil – A bathbrush swat on the thigh! I’m not surprised that it bruised. That is a mean implement and certainly one to be careful with too. Winchester – I haven’t felt a martinet either, but I have no doubt that it’s whippy and stingy like the laces. I’d trim those laces and stick with the slipper. :D Kevin – Funny thing. I just did that school paddling scene on SAturday and started out grasping my ankles, but was actually asked to reposition to have my hands on my knees. I was told that by bending all the way over, I was making the target area too small. I compromised and kept my hands just below my knees. Lee – I prefer thud over sting, but smack is good too.

It is my favorite both using and recieving. I have a fiberglass paddle, I like it because it stings like you would not believe but it does not leave lasting marks. I have found when you make someone bend over and grab her ankles it helps to make sure you hit the right mark. I love your blog, would like to see pictures of you grabing your ankles.

I would go with the smaller implements: bathbrush, wooden spoon, hairbrush. They sting like anything and make sure you know you are there to be taught a lesson on your naughty botty and not injured or risking injury. I did spank myself with a bathbrush once and it hurt like hell! Mind you I did do one swat on my thigh and I bruised yself, so be careful even with the bathbrush! I would be terriied and now I must behave if someone wielded a wooden spoon or bathbush at me. I woul be good for the rest of the day; or until I got into brat mode :) Very worried about the larger frat paddles given our commens on potential for injury.

My preference is to spank by hand. I do have a leather paddle that gets some occasional and rare usage, and there's an effective hairbrush that usually gets used on one particular person, but that's about it. Of course, if you and I ever meet, Pixie...who knows? LOL Dr. Ken I’m not a big “paddle person”–I have some, just don’t use them often, if at all. My preference is to spank by hand.

There is nothing quite like the sting imparted by a well-swung medium weight wooden paddle, and the sound it produces upon impact is awesome. Heavy frat type paddles are too damaging and dangerous and should be avoided. The very thin paddles can hardly be felt at all and easily break. A medium weight hardwood paddle about 3/8" thick is ideal for administering a stinging paddling without the worry of being too severe. a long handled paddle will impart a greater sting due to the increased leverage, and paddles with small holes will likewise sting more due to the decreased air resistance.
