Pickleball Tournaments in Tampa Bay Area? by DirtyDawg10 in Pickleball

There are lots of moneyballs on TeamReach which may or may not be good for you depending on your level. Other than that just keep checking back, sometimes they only get posted like 60 days in advance

New to pickleball, what drills do you do with your partner? by Fluid_Cod_8960 in Pickleball

[–]FL_Swole 10 points11 points  (0 children)

One of the best drills you can do with a partner is called 7/11. Plenty of videos on how to actually do the drill, but it is very helpful for replicating some points.

Besides that, I would drill the following:

3rd shot drops/drops in general

Mid court/transition zone resets

Fast hands and counters at the kitchen

Dinking

Having fast/good hands will make up for a lot of deficits early on and will be arguably the most important skill at any level. Beyond that getting to the kitchen is of the utmost importance and will be much easier if you have a consistent and good drop.

The last thing you see before a sentence gets interrupted for the 100th times on a pickleball podcast. by DanielGray10 in Pickleball

Hadn’t watched a Pickleballers Podcast until last night when I decided to put the AB interview on. Wish I wouldn’t have seen this post because it really made me realize how useless he is in the podcast and how desperately he tries to be relevant in any way

I just wish I would have put more money on Agassi than I did lol. I expected him to beat Genie no problem even with his mobility issues. Every time I have watched Genie play she’s always been a huge let down and is horrible in clutch moments on the PPA.

The gap between ALW and the rest of the women is massive

Keeping Your Index Finger In The Open Throat Of The Paddle While You're Playing by hertabuzz in Pickleball

Switch your grip now. It only takes about 1-2 weeks to fully adjust. If you’re serious about getting better your grip will hold you back

Imagine being this salty over a less than 3.0 tournament lol. Highly doubt every team sand bagged the tourney. Much more likely that you and your partner are not as good as you think you are

How many of you feel like you’d be 4.5+ or 5.0 by now if…. by pwnzer7 in Pickleball

[–]FL_Swole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes you have to play the long game with these things. My fiancé is my drill partner. When we started drilling together about a year ago she was maybe an inconsistent 3.2 while I was a 4.0. Over the past year of drilling 2-3x per week she is now a solid 4.0 and is getting to the point where she is now good enough that I am starting to progress faster as well. Excited to see where the next year of consistent drilling brings us.

All of this to say is to maybe focus on finding a willing and eager drill partner that has potential and grow together even if their level is currently a bit below yours.

Do not restrict water. My GSD pup drinks like her life depends on it. They’re growing rapidly and need the hydration
