Promark Andrew Markworth Mallet 

Percussion instructor and shop owner Herb Brochestein founded Promark back in 1957, in Houston, Texas where it's still based today! Since it's first years, Promark has became a widely known stick company, being the first company to introduce Japanese Shira-Kashi white oak into the American market, successfully becoming the only company to market oak sticks in the United States, and, in 2011, they became part of D'Addario. More recently, they have chosen to use non-endangered wood and a "green" finishing process, this makes their sticks and manufacturing process safer to each of their players and to the environment!

For those of you who don't know, Andrew Markworth is a composer, arranger, and consultant writing for marching bands, indoor percussion and winds groups and drum corps all over the world. Currently the music director for Rhythm X; both the 3 time gold medalist percussion group (2008, 2009, 2013) and the 4 time gold medalist winds group (2015, 2017, 2018, 2019). As well as the music arranger and coordinator for the Crossmen Drum and Bugle Corps from San Antonio, TX. Andrew was the Front Ensemble Arranger/Coordinator for Carolina Crown from 2007-2014.

Promark's patented mallet core molding process ensures consistency every time! Using the most sophisticated digital machines available, every single aspect of the core is perfected, from hardness to weight and shape, so that the sound, feel, and playability are consistent too. D’Addario’s world-class string making techniques were the inspiration behind Promark's new winding process that increases the life of wrap material. No more worrying about your mallets wearing out!
