| BOB YOUNGREN SHOWS
HIS BAG OF TRICKS |
Don't try this at home. It is only
for the highly trained pickleballer. At the recent San Diego Senior
Games, Bob Youngren showed his stuff. This shot generally works best
if there is a fence behind the backcourt so you can push off and get
back in the game. See how Bob and other players finished in the
results Click here

| PICKLEBALL
TIP |
THE DINK SHOTOne of the most underrated
shots in pickleball is the dink shot. In fact many players don't
even pay attention to it. However, almost all the top players have
the dink shot as part of their game and are very good at it. We can
all learn, practice and improve our dink shots. When practicing,
dink or strike the ball nice and soft. You want the ball to just
clear the net. Don't try to put too much spin or get too cute with
it as that will make it more difficult to make a good dink shot.
Don't get discouraged if your shots are hitting into the net or seem
to go too high. Like the rest of your game it will take time and
practice but you can do it! Remember that having a good dink game
will make you a better player!
