This advanced shot will turn your opponent's 3rd shot drops to DUST!

[@LARRYROBERTS-t6u]

Excellent lesson Thank you

[@gentlehorst]

Yes, well taught and yes, somebody did it to me so .....😆😉😋

[@glenross3093]

Great instruction! Thanks!

[@mtcdnp]

Love it, especially for back hand

[@OKFrax-ys2op]

Can’t wait to try this

[@BrianFunkOk]

In my rec league, there's always someone standing on the target line ready to volley. hmm. like the shot, but as in other comments, I'd love to example in live play. lovin the videos

[@PickleballKitchen]

I may do a video about this soon.

[@decapua]

Nice tip, Barrett. I’ll give it a try the next time I play against you 😂. I enjoy your videos. Good work! See ya on the court.

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks, dude!

[@doodleedah]

Great video, thanks! What grip do you use for the backhand version of this shot?

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thank you! A lot of backhand rolls like this need a continental grip and sometimes even more. So if you're right-handed, you'll rotate your grip to the left a bit more than usual.

[@doodleedah]

@@PickleballKitchen thanks so much! Always enjoy your videos!

[@PickleballKitchen]

@@doodleedah Thank you!

[@daynadirienzo9049]

Can't wait to try this.

[@PickleballKitchen]

Let me know how it works out!

[@robertsullivan3587]

It's called hitting on the outside of the ball. It's all about the point of contact when discussing the direction the ball will travel off your paddle face.

[@videofishable]

Barrett----great tutorial. 1 question and one comment: I often hit the shot short into the net even tho I swing upward and 'brush' the ball, so WHY? Comment: you suggest a grip that closes the paddle some, but slo mo of your stroke shows that your paddle is slightly OPEN at contact, every time??

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks Tom! Yes, the grip will close off the paddle more than it currently is, but that doesn't mean that it's necessarily closed. It's just closed off more than it is. Know what I mean? Sometimes the paddle face is open or closed and that's a feel thing that you'll only gain through experience.

[@videofishable]

@@PickleballKitchen thanks Barrett, and my other question re why I often hit the shot short, and into the net even tho I swing upward and 'brush' the ball, so WHY?

[@lidoz]

It’s a nice tool to add to your arsenal . It’s used when the both opponents are behind the back line and it could also be followed by a strong shot between the players as the spread trying to tackle back this shot. I don’t get the negative comments, the more difficult shots you know and better control gives you advantage to win strategically in this game.

[@tobimeyer5665]

Love this shot! More videos like this would be great!

[@bonniebrickley6544]

Absolutely love it

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks!

[@Bergarita]

A tennis friend of mine called this shot a "buggy whip" which he moved over to pickleball. This shot, when executed right, is nasty.

[@PickleballKitchen]

Yeah it's a brutal one!

[@crmannino3781]

Not even a personal coach will tell us that!! Thankyou for this invaluable video!!! Hey, can u do double hand backhand w this shot?

[@darrell1374]

Wow, nice!

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks!

[@redelfpickleballfundamentals]

Realistically speaking when playing doubles... this transition shot of going to other side...your doubles partner will be taking the hits in return by doing this shot. Will always get caught defensively unprepared with offensive return from opponents. May try this same play with four players to find out what I mean.

[@JournaloftheScotts]

Love this one. great to practice it

[@PickleballKitchen]

For sure!

[@JournaloftheScotts]

@@PickleballKitchen thank you for the video, consciously tried it and wiped opponents out couple of times in my last match. Such a great shot to mix in.

[@PickleballKitchen]

My pleasure and that's awesome. It's always great to hear people success with these types of things.

[@joycestevens376]

I hope to get to a point where I can use this shot.

[@PickleballKitchen]

Keep workin' at it!

[@okiepita50t-town28]

I’m on it.

[@DEKELLY52]

Love it!!

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks I’m glad!

[@tomlee7904]

This is an awesome shot your opponent will never expect this shot to end the point.

[@geriluciani8480]

Barry you are awesome! When are you going to move to Phoenix?

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks very much! Definitely not moving there, but I can see myself visiting at some point!

[@crmannino3781]

Nooo, move to Virginia

[@kento1957]

It would be cool if you could find some examples of people doing this in live games.

[@zakcole1558]

I 2nd the motion

[@PickleballKitchen]

That's something I'm going to start adding in the future. I had a few of these the other night actually!

[@nicholaswittendorf7230]

I wouldn't say this is an advanced shot. This is a shot that only tall people can accomplish good enough to where it actually works well

[@MrLindemburgo]

🇧🇷 excellent tip 🇧🇷

[@PickleballKitchen]

Thanks!

[@dandog7840]

that's not a third shot drop he's hitting back....a real one is about two inches above the tape...try to do his overhand spin on that and it will go right into the net....the shot exists to force a dink return

[@dianenaylor4770]

Fun shot…but will your doubles partner be ready when a quick opponent fires it right back???

[@PaddleSmithPB]

It’s a great shot, I just don’t see many drops on the forehand side of the court. Backhand version is probably more practical to get good at.

[@PickleballKitchen]

That's fair!

[@advancedpickleballbro5787]

First !!

[@PickleballKitchen]

Man dude that was like 2 minutes!
