Paiste mallets are wrapped with lamb fur giving the gong warmth, through strength when needed. Paiste recommends mallet sizes for professional percussionists who need the largest and fastest crash, so if you are going to play a gong for an extended period of time it is perfectly okay to choose a smaller mallet then a larger one as recommended.
