My bass drum pedal's mallet springs back and hurts my feet?

Question

My bass pedal is non-adjustable and the mallet always springs back and hits my foot and it hurts.

Does anyone else have this problem? Any tips?

Thanks.

Answer 1

that happens to me when i hit the bass too hard.

try not to hit the pedal and the bass drum too hard. a soft hit will sound almost the same and wont touch your feet.

hope it helps
