7 Mistakes Holding You Back in Pickleball (And How to Fix Them)

Cam Luhring: most players need fewer mistakes with shots they already have. Highlights include preferring a consistent drip over a low-% perfect drop, accelerating the drive follow-through (slow backswing), not rushing the transition zone (green/yellow/red), and dinking with purpose (don’t hit the same spot more than twice in a row).
Also covers attacking the wrong ball and swinging too big when the point gets fast.

• Trade perfect drops for high-% drips that stay low
• Slow backswing, accelerate through on drives
• In TZ use height-of-contact rules before closing
• Vary dink targets — max two in a row to the same spot
