I really like the levels drill you showed--great teaching on not working the elbow and keeping paddle open, favoring backhand and recognizing out balls. The transition zone is a dangerous area to have to hit a ball from. The more I play, the more I respect it.

Agreed 👍 if you want to improve quickly start drilling your transition zone.

Your videos have been excellent. But your last two videos your audio is out of sync with your video. Can you get that fixed?

You can't always cut off volleys at the net especially low and in the middle. Playing in the transition zone gives you options.

According to your DUPR you aren't close to 5.0. But some good tips.

Sorry, I don't play tournaments. But if you would like to see what level I really play, you're welcome to check out my games against 5.5+ DUPR rated players on my channel :)

Likely coming from a 3.0-3.5 ....am I right Bobby? Great tips Cliff, thanks. Plus, you don't need to to be a 5.0+ to be a great instructor......
@richj407 Жыл бұрын
It appears that you have done quite well at 4.5 in local tournament play. Why not step up and compete at 5.0 so you can back up your claim and raise your DUPR.@@bk_pickleball

@@richj407The tournaments that I've played recently haven't put results into DUPR unfortunately. Summer in Florida is also a dead time for tourneys, have some on the calendar coming up soon!

I'm a 4.0 certified instructor for beginners and intermediates and in just a minute of watching his ease and skills I know he is above me nicely. Ratings suck if you don't play tourneys...I want an instructor who has good ideas and skills to help me raise my game,,, not just anyone with medals. BK is the real deal!
