Pickleball Training

After spending countless hours on the pickleball court, I've recently discovered a huge missing piece in my training: consistency drills. Instead of just chasing flashy shots, I've realized mastering fundamental consistency is the key to becoming the player I want to be. Here's what changed my game.

I can spend an hour drilling drop shots and feel like I’m making real progress, but when the score is tied 10-10 in an actual match, that same shot feels completely different because the pressure changes everything.

The only way to build confidence in those high-stakes moments is by gaining experience through tournament play, and right now, the real challenge is staying motivated without the urgency of competition to expose and confront my weaknesses.
