What is your secret to consistency? Let me know in the comments 👇

There are three ways to improve consistency, one is drill, second is drill, third is also drill, until you form muscle memory for the action.

Thanks for the comment! Very true

Great instructional video! I liked "shrink the court" and the practice play of scoring unforced errors!

Making sure I watch the ball. It has helped me with my serve.

Great tips again! I like your clear presentation style. The tip that helped me a lot in the past is to look at the ball when hitting especially during the serve.

I need to remind myself on that "Feet first, then swing second" especially when I'm in the momentum or in the heat of the game.

That is awesome! Thank you for the comment and the feedback.

Shrink the court is most important to me. That cool shot on the line is nice, but low percentage. Will be working on more high percentage shots.

Amazing Coach. Thanks for all.

Well done with ideas for drills for clinics I do - like the last drill comment-game to 11 counting unforced errors.

Love your channel. Most important - watch the ball into the paddle. To keep my eye on the ball/paddle contact, I use the advice to visualize hitting multiple balls. Start with visualizing hitting 2 balls in a row at the net and increase to 4 balls at the back court line. Sounds simple but still the majority of the times my eyes/head pull up and look where I want the ball to go before contact.

Thank you for the kind words and the comment! Great tips there. That’s a great method for reading and anticipating.

Terrific content - this video really helps me remember what to focus on. Thank you for posting!👍👍 (I try to remember to watch the ball and keep my head down through each shot I hit. Avoid jerking my head up to see where the ball is headed.)

Tops for me was to use shoulder to swing from. I’m unlearning tennis. :) Most challenging shots are the return to the serve line …most tempting to revert to tennis.

Your tips are great if you have three others like you. In reality, most people suck at Pickleball and they threw off any rhythm you tend to develop.

I hear you. I play with one group of about a dozen players that has three dedicated bangers. Rallies never develop into pickleball rallies when they're involved. They quickly devolve into three-shot wiffle tennis...or four-man singles pickleball. And the non-bangers contribute to the problem because they feed the bangers what they want and give the bangers second chances by taking their "out" balls. If your partners don't know how to take control and develop a rally then teach them how. My solution was to start a drilling group. I opened it to all from that playing group. As I anticipated, the bangers were not interested and the anti-bangers were. First I'm focusing the drilling on dinking and dropping...the two things that frustrate the banger's efforts and that bangers are weak at. Once my drilling partners are able to consistently drop balls (and force the bangers into the lowest percentage drives) I'll move on to having them watch the swing path, paddle angle, and take back of the opponent to predict the likely path of the return BEFORE the ball is struck...and be prepared to let the "out" balls go out. It's a work in progress. But there has been progress and that's rewarding.

Lots of volume in a drill setting on the skill I'm working on. After, I had a second ''mouvement to the drill. Ex lateral mouvement then a push dink to the right corner of the nvz. And finally, I work on the skill in a controlled game setting....

Shrink the court. Many time when I try to paint the line on a return or serve, I hit it out.

Thanks for the comment! I do the same

My secret to consistency is not mine but rather my partner's; for example, if I see them doing something wrong, being impatient or having their head down, I'll calmly advise them and tell them that the game is over and just move to the next point.
