The invention comprises a mallet portion consisting of a shaft having a head and a flexible universal pivot portion from which the mallet portion is suspended. A grip is provided on the shaft to aid in positioning the head face perpendicular to the desired direction of ball travel and the grip may be axially translatable along the shaft. The universal pivot portion comprises a pivot cord flexible in all lateral directions which extends from the elongated shaft's upper end having a finger grip attached to the pivot cord at its terminus.
