11 Slinger Bag Drills (Using just 1 Setting and Placement)
Got a Slinger Bag and want some inspiration for a workout?
All 11 of these drills can be done using just 1 setting and with no need to move the machine. Just press go on your remote, play, sweat and then press stop to rest.
I only did around 15-20 shots per drill and I was DONE for the rest of the day!
See how many shots you can make on the 'Volley Shuttles L2', my record was 8 (although on a hard court I think I'd get more!)

I tried your drills today and it significantly changed the way I practice with Slinger. Previously, I just set the machine to shoot the ball randomly with the pivot base and I thought it would make me able to hit the balls as many as possible and get a lot of movement. But I just found that these drills make me move a lot more and hit balls more efficiently compared to the drills I use to do. Also, it uses fewer balls than it used to be. Thank you so much.

Hi Ashley. Unsure if you ever go back and reread comments from older posts, but here I am. I just wanted to commend you on a job well-done.

@jonathanpetersfield 3 года назад

Hi Ashley. Jonathan from Steep here. I dropped in on your Mens finals last Saturday hope you won. I received my Slinger same time as you and we have the same clay court. This bag has transformed my tennis and it takes me 1 session with the bag to teach a novice how to play forehand and backhand although I am not a coach. The bag is amazing with green balls for the kids and safe. I challenge you to show me how to do a backhand volley at the net with the ball arriving just above. It's crazy hard to hit. I mainly place the bag my side of the court as it lowers the topspin.

@TheTennisMentor 3 года назад

Hi Jonathan, I hope I was playing ok?! 😅 A good move from Steep to resurface with artificial clay, it’s amazing in the winter months!! It is a good investment and a great tool for all abilities if you use it with the right settings. I also like to use it on my side of the net for an easier ‘hand fed’ style ball. Volleys are always difficult when you receive them low. The best option is to take it early (before it drops to net height), if you can’t get to it in time, hitting an angled ‘drop volley’ can give you more space to get the ball up and over the net... hit the ball forwards and it’s likely to go into the net or sit up nicely for your opponent. I hope that made sense?!

@ampstudios 3 года назад

and not one person in your comments complained about the speed of which the ball is coming to you. i quite honestly never think about how fast a ball is coming at me in a game, ever, yet there are other channels that reviewed this machine and some people complained they wish they could make the ball arrive faster. also you didn't mention anything about being able to underspin the ball. to me this just seems to be a really good way to get cardio and drills down and if you really want other varieties of spins, bring a partner along and they can provide those different spins on the ball. just my 2 cents.

@TheTennisMentor 3 года назад

Agreed. At the end of the day, if you want a truly realistic feed, then you need to hit with a real person! A ball machine is a great way for repetition, volume and cardio. Thanks for watching!

@@TheTennisMentor I have a question for you since you're also a rep., I use 144 balls and twice or three times the balls stop coming. I heard somebody say that it's because the Velcro inside of the Slingerbag isn't tight enough...but there's no way of tightening it. I was thinking of maybe putting some padding inside but then 144 balls won't fit in. The feed stopping 2 or 3 times for 144 is management but still a headache and a pain, since you have to walk to the machine and move the balls around to re-start the feed. How do you deal with that issue? Why was this problem not deal with before releasing the product?

@TheTennisMentor 3 года назад

It really depends on what you want to practice? I rarely use it on the baseline (due to the high spin it produces). I tend to use it as shown here, or on the same side of the court to me if I want higher volume/repetitions. I’ve got another video being uploaded tomorrow morning with some more drills/settings. I hope this helps!😊
