Yeah I have advice

Don’t hit the ball so hard

Don’t run to the net until the return of the serve

Plant your feet when you’re near the net in the “kitchen” don’t back off for anything and learn to play right there

I’ve been told to ask Steve for advice when I’m at the court

Stay out of the kitchen and have a strong grip

To the pickleball boys:

Just played for the first time last Friday big fan.

How do you lads do research in buying a paddle? I bought a cheap-ish one but want the knowledge for when I get better and buy a more expensive one.
