Mr Morris, thank you so very much! Your workout is very effective, enjoyable, and accessible to anyone who seriously wants to become a better pickleball player.
If you want to practice fast action eye hand coordination for dinking and vollys, then a DinkBuddy is great for indoor practice when the weather is bad and you don't have to chase balls. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Zvr6TRDgu1I.html
I repeat the first two exercises with back hand. That makes it the 7 minute workout. Being left handed I need to keep that back hand working. Thanks for the video
Thank you so much for putting theses pickle balls drills together so us beginners can learning faster. It’s gets abit boring sitting and waiting for your turn to play at recreation centers when there’s a line of 6+ sets of players ahead of you. Was thinking about purchasing another paddle to practice while I waiting for my turn to come up. What do you think? Thanks again✨
Thank you, #4 is def more of a feel/touch exercise that will help with control. #5 is very specifically a hand eye drill using and extremely small target. It would be similar to throwing darts.
Thank you very much for your video! It is so beautifully presented, so clearly explained! You are born to be a teacher! After watching your video and thinking about my pickleball errors, I realized that, indeed, I need to work on my hand-eye coordination. I know that I oftentimes cannot catch a ball with my left hand when someone tosses it to me across the court, just miss the ball when trying to grab it - a clear indication of a hand-eye coordination deficiency. Inaccurate paddle position which leads to unforced errors is also a part of not sufficiently well trained hand-eye coordination. I worked on some of your drills today and thoroughly enjoyed them! You made a joke about joggling, but probably a learning sequence towards joggling three balls will be helpful, too. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching your other videos to learn how to practice in the garage or on a deck. THANK YOU!
Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and articulate note. Really appreciate your kind words and glad that this video helped in some way!
@@ThePickleballExperience This video was a great start! I searched on youtube and found countless videos on hand-eye coordination from every sport imaginary. I could not even think that it is so important, as noone brought it to my attention, ever. I am working on the drills which you suggested as well as on drills with catching tennis balls (tennis balls are softer and hurt hands less, they also bounce quieter). I am making fast progress. The most surprising thing is that I see an immediate and significant improvement in my pickleball skills from hand-eye coordination training - I am making much fewer unforced errors. This video, somehow, was an eye opener for me! Just because this video turned out so important for me, and because I liked the style of your instruction so much, I signed up for the clinic which you will offer in April at my pickleball club in Portland metro area. I look forward to meeting you there!
Great drills. When doing # 1, SWEET SPOT, I find myself chasing the ball around the room. Is this an indication of something I am doing wrong or just need more time?
Thanks for writing us! It definitely takes time and practice. Something that can help is just trying to do 2 in a row and then catching the ball in your other hand. Once you feel comfortable with that, try for 3 in a row. And so on…
Watched your video right before heading to the gym to do some wall practice in one of the racquetball courts since it's rainy here in "sunny" SoCal today. Loved your idea of having the zone right above the net line to help keep my 3rd shot drives down! Had a great practice session playing "points" and having the target zone helped me focus - can't wait to try it tomorrow in real PB games. Thanks!
@@ThePickleballExperience I am in the Pasadena area so a bit of a drive for you to come pickle with us but if you’re ever in the area reach out to me and I’ll invite you to my club to play!
I have had the opportunity to participate in the Pickleball Experience, it was fun, it pushed my limits, I came away with techniques and strategies I could deploy immediately. I strongly recommend you check out the team. Full disclosure, Jemuel Morris is my brother.
hi just couple questions. what should my grip be like during these drills.. loose? firm. really tight? and what is objective or what am i learning from "insane edge" drill? thank you Joel
Hey Joel, definitely a loose grip. The objective on edge of insanity is just a more focused hand eye drill. The smaller the target we use for the ball to hit, the harder it becomes. Once we can hit smaller targets more consistently, the better chance we have of making solid contact in the sweet spot of our paddle. Hope this helps. Jem
Two great videos for pickleball. Hand coordination gained by juggling ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BaXWuA_mxe0.html and how to practice focusing on the ball ru-vid.comO1egKCoZ3RM
I was thinking the same thing… I can just taste the magical levity from the densely wooded, damp air… presumed it had to be one of the islands in the beautiful pacific northwest. Pickleball’s motherland, miss’n it, but holding it down here in Sedona! Thanks for the great vid.
Welcome :) I think I have the exact measurements in this video: Pickleball Wall Drill Using Multiple Targets ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TVPEImpo__I.html
Dude! Two years later and still helping people with this video, thank you so much for the time that you took to do it. I am on my way to meet with one of my pickeball friends to work on these.
