"I don't want to make you a better hitter, I want to make you a better player" Wise words! This is the way 🤝

[@seizethedayandlive]

Ha! A true Mandalorian!

[@DjokovicIsOurLordAndSaviour]

A great tennis player you must become. I have spoken!

[@WivoRN]

This is my new favourite tennis channel! Amazing work

[@weednate]

Wivo!!!!

[@WalkerKlondyke]

Yours is one of the best also! I think there are 3 categories in YT Tennis: Match Play, Instruction, and Tennis Appreciation. You’re at the top of the Appreciation category for sure! Thanks for great vids

[@hrabmv]

i would like to see a video where you play with a player that is very good at game but not having great technique:)) ?

[@karllee7667]

Love the comment: “ Bad footwork can breakdown good technique”. So Freakin’ True!!!

[@svarthofde2492]

Footwork is your best friend in tennis. If you get to the ball in time you can have a clean hit without the need for adapting on the fly. Imo the best example is the one handed backhand, the simplest hit when it comes to the kinetic chain. As long as you make it to the ball in time and hit it at the proper height you get the easiest shot to make in tennis. You get there late, you set up badly then you have to improvise from you wrist or worse from your elbow and you're gonna screw it up every time

[@vectorthurm]

Lots of us intermediate’s out here who struggle with nerves, thank you for your content!!

[@thomasmedeiros5722]

The first point you made about needing to hit better shots when you hit with players that are at a higher skill level is very accurate. I always tried to set up practices with players that were more skilled. Also my foot work and speed were a big asset in being able to stay in the rallies. Hitting deep is probably one of the most important factors in staying in a point. Being able to move the ball around me hit consistently off of both sides will help you win points.

[@gindio1]

I really liked what you said there, "it is ok to hit short, once in a while!". My view is that to every strategy there is a counter strategy and it all depends on your opponent. Even if one tries and is mostly successful at keeping the ball deep, if you do it all of the time your opponent can easily step 3-4 steps back and your deep balls would not be a problem any more all you are left with is the high risk of hitting the ball long. That is exactly what Medvedev, Thiem and all those guys do by standing 5-6 feet behind the base line, they neutralizes their opponent's deep balls because even if their opponents are successful at hitting the ball 1 foot from the baseline it is still 7-8 feet away from them. So I think it is not only ok to hit short once in a while, it is necessary. A better advice would be vary your ball depth, and do it intentionally.

[@ivanpalaca6230]

"Im gonna make another video of a different players of different level" sounds very good for this channel👏

[@josephduchene5849]

Best tennis channel on KZbin without a doubt.

[@joniozq]

Man the first two tips (footwork and depth) are the two parts of my game that I’ve been wanting to improve on and I think they are definitely underrated advice. I’m sold, you got my sub and I’ll check out your footwork video.

[@andersflodmark8724]

Late comment but love the idea where you slow down the match play and put your comments on top, in this case explaining what is happening but you could also use this to help inexperienced tactical players understand how a pro sees the court and the opponent, plus of course, shot selection based on this. Maybe you've done this already, beyond what you did here. Good stuff.

[@LiamApilado]

I haven't watched the whole thing yet but I know its another banger 🎾💪 these FPV vids are so good!

[@MPTennis]

Great info Karue!!! This is why we loved Brad Gilbert's book Winning Ugly so much....it taught us how to play the game better....not have the ATP forehand 😁

[@RK-ft9rn]

Karue...I love how you make things simple...don't hit 2 short balls in a row such an easy concept during matchplay...thru your vids I used problem-solving to help me get to the finals of a recent tournament when before I would have lost...such a break thru for me to win close matches...thank you...I can be your video hitting partner for 3.5 level...utr of 4.5...I keep buying using your links...lets support MYTHQ!!!!

[@eac537]

I really appreciate you pointing out the ways you differ from other youtube tennis coaches. I suspect e.g. Top Tennis Training is probably just better for beginners, and your videos are better for later on, but I conveniently found their videos as a beginner 2.5 years ago, and your videos more recently, and it seems to have helped a lot to use them in that order.

[@technodon9]

Hi Mr.Sell. I found your site weeks ago and you are helping me understanding the theory and logic of tennis. I am around 4.0. Now what amazed me and helped me the most is "🎉first person point of view tennis" series. That helped me SO MUCH feeling the timing, how I should hit the ball at the top, and the rhythm of it all.... I would be so happy if you do the "first person point of view tennis". just hitting (I know you did that before). , for ground stroke , volley, like that. You improved my tennis watching your first person point of view tennis. In any case, I truly appreciate your contents and good luck on your tennis endeavors! Cheers!

[@kenkrehbiel1931]

Thanks for the video Karue! And thanks to Marcos for sharing his time. I’ve been focusing on depth and variety in my practice session lately and nice to see I’m on the right track 😎

[@osteouk]

One of my favourite tennis videos ever with the pusher analogy. Always laugh when someone says the pusher who beat them didn’t play properly - you’ve just called yourself a terrible player 😁

[@WalkerKlondyke]

Excellent advice! Next time I’m in trouble I’m gonna think “hit deeper” not harder. Karue, this channel is about to explode!

[@Tennis_fam]

This video is definitely one of the most important ones I have ever watched. Full of great advice. Keep up the fantastic work, karue!

[@brunis_m]

Karue, for some reason the sound from your mic is only going to the right speaker, prob something with editing. For those using earphones it's a bit weird.

[@thesenate9339]

Yes

[@sinaisinai43]

Well said. The person with easier, more consistent depth control will almost always win the match, regardless of stroke production or "skill level".

[@deantebyani6432]

Great lesson , definitely makes sense. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@CaptZiad]

Glad to discover this gem of a channel! Loved the discussion on depth being a big factor of establishing control in a point.

[@leonardoramirez7667]

Invaluable advise this... Thanks Karue. Also I would like to add that playing well on clay accentuates the necessity to perform these 4 steps even further. Hit them clay courts and dont be afraid of the pushers.

[@architennis]

On the west coast of USA...no clay courts around here!

[@ppcrlcht5502]

Sound advices as they can be applied by any player. Props!

[@Lucas.jp13]

Dude, these FPV videos are awesome. I bet you one will blow up big time... If you feel like doing more work/ editing and add in some third-person shots, that might make the video even cooler.

[@ricericemaybe]

Yes! You're exactly right! Saying the right stuff and keeping it simple. Focusing solely on technique makes it sound like it's the key to tennis although there are a lot of more elements that are as important ESPECIALLY FOOT WORK! Thank you Karue for the video, will support you in patreon! PS: you should put all the links in the description, so it would be easier to support the channel hah.

[@sherifkarnak]

Karue great tips as always. Could you make a video about how to attack different balls and teach us more about the approach shot in general. For example a high ball (shoulder level and above) with no pace between the T and the baseline and shorter top spin ball that lands inside the T but still has some speed spin and height or a slower and shorter ball below the net. Your video about how to handle heavy top spin was really helpful showing and explaining in great depth the right technique the slow mo and everything. MytennisHQ is the best tennis channel on youtube thanks for all the great advice.

[@coffeedude2024]

Some great advice here! I'm guilty of over complicating the game and making my patterns far too complicated. But listening to your video has,definitely set a light bulb off in my head to keep things far more simple and just focus on good depth, variety and quality footwork. Keep up the great work👍

[@KaruesellHQ]

Glad I could help!

[@JackdawLifts]

Awesome tips. I feel like I just unlocked some of these ideas myself to a less obvious or less nuanced way but yeah I was deffo trying to do too much... and I realised yeah just chill, and play with the ball more in an easier way. Like. Hmm. Basically what you said. Back of the court. Less winner shots. More simple. Anyway. Peace.

[@brightmar20]

Its so funny. I strive so hard to get this message across to my students. You explained it so well. I’m sharing this video with all of them. Thank you!

[@assihassan]

truly unique tennis channel good job Karue

[@KaruesellHQ]

Thank you!

[@cgctennis5695]

well said my man, you're going to blow up keep it up. I will show this to a lot of my students. Really like how you worded it so simply

[@SwagDawg]

14:00 I totally agree with that I always practice harder when I should be playing harder during matches

[@EdmonBegoli]

Thank you so much for this video. I share your sentiment with all this over production of KZbin tutorials and “ATP forehands”, sick top spins ... this video is a real deal.

[@Cameron-ue7lu]

First person pov is great, it helps visualise and differentiates your tennis channel - if you can come up with novel ways to film the experiences including serve etc from a unique point of view, we could have something special here. Thanks!

[@daveskaff]

Super practical, immediately useful. Really enjoying your approach to your videos.

[@KaruesellHQ]

Thank you!

[@brunopecly6438]

I like the way you approach the game. I have sent some clients to your channel and I'm also watching to improve my game. Thanks for the content

[@DDNZ]

Awesome video...and super helpful perspective. This will help me so much

[@xiaoxiao8523]

[@sashazanjani]

Amazing video. You are a tennis guru with your videos.

[@RalphPiepenburg]

amazing tips, please keep on going. Cheers from Germany

[@harryshi2952]

Thanks for the video. Could you please give us an instruction how to deal with short and low ball(below knees)? Sometimes it is either easy to hit the net or over the line due to no pace and low

[@tobiaslejnerborn2238]

another really really good video that makes a lot sense. Will try to focus more on variety (and less on hitting hard....guilty...)

[@thopet3785]

Great information 👍 and your movie on 2 handen backhand , have help me a lot.

[@KaruesellHQ]

Awesome!

[@jhamal41080]

Great vid, thank you!

[@warehouse13graphicsolutions]

How about in a video include heavy shape ball included building a point where the camera angle shows the height and depth of the ball?

[@raderT90]

Hey, Karue can you make a video on how to fix hitting long? I think that is a big part of what makes club players less solid.

Thank you!!!

[@mattiastennis]

A simple good and applicable video. What would be good to see would be your and/or Marcos Giron's on court footwork, fitness or sprinting exercises. That is what drills you or he do Also how do you vary your play or matchplay strategy/tactics for different surfaces like Red Clay or Grass? Or do you just equivalently apply the main principles you have noted here?

[@KaruesellHQ]

We'll do that one day for sure

[@stauroskellidis4594]

Hello there! I got an off kinda topic question that I wanna ask you and love to guide me! I am an intermediate to advanced baseline player and atm I own a Wilson blade v7 18x20 and a vcore 98 2021 model, I just can’t decide which one to hold and progress with!! I would appreciate any guidance and help! Tyvm in advance! Keep the good work, your videos and guides helped me a lot! Auto sub :)

[@mu11ian]

Top guy! Great video

[@KaruesellHQ]

Thank you!

[@Fernwald84]

No doubt about it--footwork is absolutely essential. However, good footwork doesn't mean much if you fail to predict accurately where the ball is going on your side of the court, how fast it is traveling, how high it is going to bounce on your side of the court and what kind of spin it has. When we have to lean unnecessarily toward or away from the ball we automatically blame our footwork when the problem may be that we didn't correctly predict where the ball was going to be as it approached us. Better footwork won't fix this problem. Only lots of experience and innate aptitude will refine our ball predictive skills to a high level. So we should discriminate footwork problems from ball prediction problems and then apply the right solution.

Does variety clash with consistency?

[@KaruesellHQ]

No. It improves consistency

Random question, but what breed of dog is that? Me and my family had a dog who sadly passed away a few years ago and we always wondered what breed she was. She definitely shared a lot of similarity to your dog.

Being a better hitter doesn't always mean u win more matches. I hit really well my last match overall but vs an opponent I destroyed before I almost lost simply cause of footwork, I felt heavy and slow
