Gibraltar SC-3262 Wood Bass Drum Beater

I bought 2 of those for my studio, I'm not a real drummer but I have put some time into it and I'm pretty good for "not a drummer".
So, when I installed the beater to test it against my typical felt beater I noticed a weight change, but it was more of a general slower reaction time particularly when leaving my foot off the pedal, so I think my old pedal spring is ready to retire.
Now the sound...wow....
It does make you hit it a bit harder (which adds a lot of "umph") but it generally boosted the attack and depth of my 22" concert bass drum making it sound like a lower tuned 24".
I do have a very weird bass drum setup but I think that beater will make most bass drums punchier, heavier and louder, just make sure you place it in the right height and with maybe a stiffer spring.

I immediately tried this on my Trick Dominator pedal, which took some time (for me) with the original beater to come to a favorite adjustment.

It played well right away, without a beater weight.
But that's also the case with other beaters, so that underlines again having a good setting on your pedal (at least the Dominator), pays off using other beaters.

And you don't want beater weights on this beater, because it's heavy. Over 90 grams.
It will give you the loudest of attacks of all kind of beaters, but I just put this on at home to train with more weight.

And it's cheap.
