This is all great info! I wish I had seen this video when I first started playing. What would suggest to get over the 4.0 hump. I'm kind stuck right under that around 3.8-3.9. Do you have a video for the next level or is it mostly drilling and practice?
I do feel chemistry and familiarity with another player is a factor and playing two players that are not familiar with one another can surely be beaten when they are out of synch and not communicating. Always a great video! Thank you!
Hi. I'm not sure where to request content. I love your videos - you have really improved my game. How do you do counter drop shots? Drops to my backhand, specifically. My opponent is usually ready when I return that. I try to return to center and keep low, but often pop a little high and it gets attacked. They have really good reach. Is there a better strategy to return a drop to backhand? Thanks
Great video! Just what I needed for the 4.0+ players I play and get whooped at. It's called Chicken and Pickle over in Grand Prarie TX. It's like the major leagues over there. 😎
I play lots of recreational pickup Pickleball. I try to moderate my game to the level of my opponents. Win by two or three points. A couple of mistaken line calls, a few lucky net deflections. I lose. I never contest opponent line calls. Occasionally, I play superior opponents. With maximum effort, they can be beat. I dink occasionally. Reluctantly.
Hey just checking in to let you know how much i appreciate not only all the experience you have for your young age, but also your ability to articulate and demonstrate your lessons through your videos. Most other UA-cam instructors have so much useless information, and the way they give the lesson is so Annoying or useless, that i can't even watch. Thanks for what you do!
I like the term “concede” over “surrender” when my opponent hits a good drop shot and I can’t keep them back. Similar meaning, but I think concede sounds stronger than surrender.
I learn so much every time I watch one of your videos.Could you possibly make a detailed video on how to get SPIN? I see the same advice over and over to just 'brush up' on the ball to get top spin. It looks and sounds so easy yet I just can't seem to figure out how to spin my balls. Perhaps you could really break down the process or offer some tips. Thanks for the excellent content...your chanel always inspires and entertains me.
Please do a video on defending the corners😢 I have trouble knowing what to do on backhand but also forehand on anything that is a corner /angle shot 🙏🙌
I can really use help here as well. I have no tennis experience and play against many seasoned tennis players who have turned to pickleball. They are great at hitting the corners, spin and keeping the ball deep (and yes, love to bang). I'm pretty good at defending, but could use some help to make defending easier- and how to move from just defending to being more offensive. Thanks.
I just want to add, I don’t think 9/10 serves is close to enough consistency. I think the starting number should be closer to 19/20 serves. 10% error rate on the serve would be very noticeable
Thanks for watching everyone and good luck on the courts this week! If you want to help our channel grow, like, share & subscribe!

why reluctantly? It's part of the game.
Court positions at 13!
Really useful information. * my only wish is that you SPEAK SLOWER
Talk a little slower.😊
100% agree on making better decisions. Besides drilling it’s the best way to improve.
Perfect illustration of play smarter, not harder. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

So funny you say that. Our next video is all about how to use spin in pickleball. Thanks for watching!
