I have been a professional golfer, a semi-professional baseball player and am an expert in self defense and sell a dvd and online program demonstrating that knowledge (see at SelfDefenseMadeRealEasy.com). But my newest passion is pickleball, and I plan on being a top player. Therefore, I will learn from anyone willing to share knowledge. Thanks for watching. I hope this helps you in your pickleball journey. Please subscribe, like, comment & share. I plan on posting many pickleball related videos including gear reviews, instructional videos and more.
