    A common mistake I see with most ammatures, their impact point is not in front of their body. Way too many people hit off balance and go to far back with their paddle. Short and compact swings give you much more control and command. Keep your paddle out in front.

    I certainly agree with this analysis. Once upon a time I was a competitive singles tennis player and this same advice would've worked very well for that sport too with perhaps a little less emphasis on reaction time and instead focusing on predicting where the opponent is going to hit the ball.

    Thank you so much, Nicole !
    You make all good points.
    I can only get so much better from imitating better players, and this gives me much more to do. The moving forward / positive attitude part of pickleball has become as important in the rest of my life as in casual play situations. And that has made life easier for a 65 year old.
    Apparently, old dogs can learn new tricks...
    Thank you again, Nicole !

    Wow, Nicole. Great video that really "unpacks" the 5 components that can lift us all up. Your advice and observations are so well packaged and inspirational to us hovering down in the 4.0-4.5 range. As a former basketball player, I think you hit the nail on the head about good footwork, keeping low, and pivoting to the shots and decisions that will work, not just their favorite shots/moves. (I could never explain that as well as you did.) Please keep these high-level strategy videos coming! - Joe Z, Arlington Iron Paddles.

    Excellent content (that’s no surprise)! Mindset is essential. Honesty with yourself is hard but necessary. I also think it is important to be honest about what you do well and use that as a balance so that you maintain optimism about your strengths and have great confidence to execute them in competition. Mindset is also critical to drive the desire to put in the time and grind of practice. The mindset of “Embracing the Grind”. The grind is the big differentiator. Thanks for reading thru the long response.

    • @primetimepickleball

      Outside of getting more consistent with all the core abilities, the greatest thing that changed my game was mindset. I heard Ben Johns say something similar, basically he said that you have to be able to reset after each point/rally. Once I was able to do that, it was amazing the jump my skills took.

    I am a tennis player who has recently started playing Pickleball. Please do a video on how to stop hitting the ball long, into the net and out of bounds. I am used to swinging hard and these are my errors. I am actively trying to not hit/swing so hard, use a one-handed backhand and the smaller court is a problem for me as well. I would be great if you could do a video on transitioning from Tennis to Pickleball. Thank You.

    • @KalbiKing
      @KalbiKing Год назад +2

      Dunno if you have the same problems I did when converting. The pickleball follow through has a more fixed wrist position than in tennis. What I mean is follow through with your arm, but don’t roll over your wrist as much. You’re still brushing up on the ball, but my wrist position after point of contact stays more or less locked in that position all the way through the follow through

    • @primetimepickleball
      @primetimepickleball  Год назад

      Thanks so much for the comment and for the video suggestion. In the meantime, please watch this video: ruclips.net/video/ykTIXE30q9I/видео.html
      Without seeing your strokes, I imagine an important point is going to be focus on shortening your backswing. That is a very common problem for those hitting too hard.

  • @brianm5798
    @brianm5798 Год назад

    Nicole, when you say “contact points” what do you mean? Where you intend to place your shot?

    • @primetimepickleball
      @primetimepickleball  Год назад

      I mean if you’re making contact with your shot in your strike zone. So that you’re in a strong position at the point you make contact with the ball. Your not jammed or reaching. It’s right where you want it.

    Good video but ultimately futile. Most rec players do not possess the skills, or talent (sorry, hand-eye/timing is a talent), necessary to acquire these skills. All this is taught in tennis, which I taught/coached for many years. Bottom line: You either have it, or ya don't.

    • @primetimepickleball
      @primetimepickleball  Год назад +5

      I once had a teammate with very little talent but worked extremely hard and she was able to build all the skills to become a great player that slayed giants. I don't count anyone out that's willing to put in the work.

      i have to disagree with u coach..having no paddle/raquet experience as a kid(i did play sports 24/7 as a kid)---i now at 65 yrs old can rip both forehands and backhands with confidence with just alittle practice..yes tennis is the hardest game by far but with alittle mechanical knowledge of the body/swing i feel anyone can improve rapidly--even at tennis..ps..i studied many tennis utube videos to help with my pickleball ..plus ive seen people with zero natural talent improve alot at pball..pball unlike tennis is very easy because your not sprinting while trying to hit crosscourt winners..that said i wish i could have played tennis when i was young--its a great game and i have tremendous respect for you and other coaches that teach tennis...

      @primetimepickleball  11 месяцев назад +1

      There’s a huge difference. I just saw a great D1 tennis player in his first few months of playing pickleball. Great foundation but lots to learn in terms of adapting his strokes for pickleball as well as learning pickleball strategy.
