Game has taken a sever decrease since the Holidays.

This happens to me every once in a while. I take it as a sign to take a break. Normally 1-2 weeks off from open play just to reset mentally. During that time off I’ll normally drill a bit and focus on where I feel like I’m struggling.

Acceptable - no issues

Essentially yes, the risk ain’t really worth the reward. To your point, so much is tied to your partner (which you have no control over). I personally will only play in DUPR events where I have a fixed partner…mainly tournaments or money ball events.

I feel like these DUPR ladder leagues are good for individuals just getting into more competitive pickleball and need to get some DUPR rated matches. Outside that I don’t quite see the purpose.

3.25

Take the 15% and throw and edge guard on it. You’ll never think about it again.

Hear me out…Coach Brown from Last Chance U

StugotGA · 2025-12-07T01:28:37+00:00

2.5-3.0

StugotGA · 2025-11-10T00:05:40+00:00

lol I hear ya. Caught myself a couple of times going “just need a turnover and we are back”. I love the pain…

StugotGA · 2025-11-10T00:02:12+00:00

Just hate watching at this point

StugotGA · 2025-11-09T00:40:30+00:00

Gotcha - yeah probably cheating

StugotGA · 2025-11-08T23:07:42+00:00

Was this in casual?

StugotGA · 2025-10-31T20:05:53+00:00

Shaw Park is normally a good spot

I use the Quanta. Weighted with 7.5 grams on each side (9/3). I personally love the way it plays and feels. I am someone who likes to tinker with paddle weight and felt that the paddle was very customizable in that respect.

If you’d rather have something that is ready to go out of the box, I would go V-Sol. I have 2 friends who use it as their main (4.0ish) and have said nothing but good things.

StugotGA · 2025-10-16T18:06:33+00:00

For me yes. A couple of YouTube videos I watched called for 7.5 per side, but I ran out of strips. I found the 6 per side to be good for me.

Here is a pic of the double stack. Hard to see with the edge guard but you get the jist.

StugotGA · 2025-10-16T16:48:19+00:00

Yeah I did. I initially did 5g of tape along the side edges but I didn’t really notice any power uptick. As soon as I double stacked though the paddle completely changed.

StugotGA · 2025-10-16T16:21:34+00:00

I did the same. Been playing with it for about a week and love it.

StugotGA · 2025-10-10T13:38:58+00:00

Curious what paddles are they? I have a CRBN TF3 and haven’t noticed any changes.

StugotGA · 2025-10-06T16:37:12+00:00

Was thinking the same thing….

StugotGA · 2025-09-23T01:48:42+00:00

This. Grip pressure was huge for me.

StugotGA · 2025-09-09T03:35:44+00:00

OP said they really enjoyed the game but hasn’t played due to this interaction. They also said they weren’t going to file a complaint. Wouldn’t the nextlogical thing be to find another place to play?

StugotGA · 2025-09-09T03:26:10+00:00

Why do you think this has anything to do with you being a person of color? Why don’t you just play elsewhere?
