The PPA replay system is great. It’s easy to tell if a ball is in or out, speeding up the decisions.

Playing to 15 might help. This potentially allows for more recovery time off a slow start.

Will Howell just hit an erne lob! Incredible

I don’t have a suggestion for a solution just wish it was a better watch

I’m really trying to give MLP pickleball a chance. Good decision to get rid of the goofy scoring, but I really like the 3 game set to determine a winner. I’m watching ALW/Dizon v Schneemann/Parker. A combination not seen anywhere else. Great matchup. Give us 3 games.

Thanks! I’ll check it out

I struggle with dehydration when playing pickleball, especially during Wisconsin summers. I’ve tried commercial electrolytes with some success, but it’s pricey. I have been mixing my own for a couple of years. 40oz of water, 1/4 tsp sea salt, 1/8 tsp potassium citrate, 1/2 tsp magnesium glycinate

Great win for Johnson/Klinger. The 5TH SEED! The partner shake ups have been the shot of adrenaline championship Sunday needed.

Fascinating matchup right now between Johns/Tardio and Johnson/Klinger. Also looking forward to the women’s doubles with the partner switch match between ALW/Bright and Parentau/Rohranacher but expect ALW and AB to come out on top.

Thank you

Rough day on the court. Sprained the MCL on my left knee. Probably out 2-4 weeks

Serving is like shooting a free throw in basketball. Have a routine and do it every time.

I'm back playing with my regular group in WI. Strong group. 4.3 to 4.8 DUPR. In AZ, I was playing everyday but competition not nearly as consistent. Almost shocking how my game eroded in 3.5 months, despite playing nearly every day. Many bad habits. Iron sharpens iron. Lesson learned.

I went to our local courts today. A large group of women were playing on 4 courts having a Mother’s Day weekend event. They were having a great time playing pickleball. The more experienced players were teaching the beginners how to play. Pickleball is growing because of these type of activities.

Playing intentional pickleball means every shot has a purpose. You're not just reacting—you're targeting, adjusting, and dictating pace. Less autopilot, more awareness. Control the rally, don’t chase it. #pickleball

Used to drop every third. Now I drive most thirds, drop the fifth. My default drive: mid-net, slightly off-center.
-Low net
-Causes hesitation/confusion
-Tough return on the move
Master that, then level up with targeted drives—sideline, wing, or body.

I’m using the PickleballTV app to watch this weekend. It’s impressive. I’m casting from an iPhone to the tv. Nice, quality image. It’s easy to switch between center and grandstand courts.

Watching MLP today. Definitely like the side out scoring switch

It will be interesting to see the ALW/Agassi pairing. ALW is at the top of the profession and Agassi’s interest seems good for pickleball.

Lol you’re right

Open play pickleball: come for the cardio, stay for the silent judging.

Same

It’s subtle. Last Wednesday I mishit more shots than usual. The same thing happened in Arizona in January. Usually takes a few days to self correct.

Playing tonight. Hoping for a better performance. Playing the Selkirk ball for 4 months made going back to X-40 a challenge

I’m back playing with my regular group after playing at retirement community in AZ. Rude awakening. I’ve got work to do. Playing tomorrow after 2 days off. Hoping to do better.

Taking a break for a few days. Knees are hurting

I just got back to Wisconsin on Tuesday. Played last night with my regular group. Great to see everyone again.

I saw her at APP Chicago last summer. Great player

A hammer is great—but not for every job. Same with power. Use it wisely, or your opponent will use it against you. #Pickleball
