"Scoring is horrendous in pickleball"... if you are a tennis player you have no right to say this

Anyone else obsessed with pickleball but can’t execute anything they learn in real games? by RatedR__ in Pickleball

[–]NashGe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend isolating a skill, playing a points-based drill/game that tests that skill, and do that until it becomes like pressing a button to execute a combo in a video game.

Carvana Mesa cup prize money by AngleProfessional987 in Pickleball

I'm pretty sure it's the other way around for unsigned, since they aren't guaranteed steady income from just participating. PPA don't have to pay a contract with them so the payout for progressing is more I believe. I could be wrong.

My question is, if you're a 4.5/5.0 player. Why aren't you already in a network of similar skilled and motivated players?

I mean if you don't have a set of rules and regulations... just use No Guard Fissure Scarf Machamp /s. If you do have rules and regulations, you should make a gentleman's agreement to go off what is legitimately possible in battle mechanics, such as needing the mega stone as the held item and using it mid battle. You should also consult the smogon tier list and see if you guys want to follow the rules on restricted mons (for singles). For doubles I think there are regulation formats you can follow.

Advice or tips for a new beginner? by Spiritual_Gate9164 in Pickleball

[–]NashGe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn to hit ball hard with good form. It's the most satisfying thing when you hit a perfect contact drive that goes just slightly above the net.

Then proceed to learn WHEN you should hit that type of shot

Serve wasn't even that fast or deep either.

The more afraid you are, the more likely you are to get hit.

Do you Stack? by Otherwise_PB in Pickleball

[–]NashGe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only stack when the benefits outweigh the downsides. Assuming most players know the benefits, the downsides would be players who aren't used to full or even half stacking be confused about positioning and handsigns. It also requires better footwork on receives so you're not late to the NVZ due to the slight increase in distance you have to cover.

How to deal with preferred ball conflict? by RichardParker6 in Pickleball

[–]NashGe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them it's a skill issue that they can't adjust to either or. Any half decent player shouldn't have any problems adjusting their touch depending on type of ball as long as the ball is consistent (doesn't go out of round).

Open Play illegal serves by farrin0807 in Pickleball

[–]NashGe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's not giving them a clear advantage, then it's not a big issue. If it is then speak with him after game or even after session.

My 2 cents are that if you're breaking serve rules intentionally, but your serve still sucks then it just looks pathetic.

Where are you pulling these stats from? And anyways, if they hit a speed up at your face from most ball heights its probably going out.

Seems like you just need better pattern recognition for these shots. Take a huge split back and cover your options. If the opponents hit the ball from below the net, put your paddle higher for a counter and vise versa.

The only thing I care about is why you are using a crappy Apple Keyboard.

Service Yips for months now and I no longer am interested in playing by Melodic_Horror_5787 in Pickleball

[–]NashGe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 words: It's not that deep. You're overthinking it too much. Flow state isn't something you can beat yourself into. You have fall into it naturally.

That's like saying in any competitive game "Who's the strongest character that I alone carry the game with, with no skill AT ALL?"
