What metrics are you using to determine whether you are playing efficient serve or return pickleball? Are you evaluating fourth shot success? Depth of shots? Ease of your opponents acquiring the Non-Volley Zone?
In this video, we give you a measure you can use to determine how efficient you are on the pickleball rally's serve side.
Scoring in 5 shots means that you hit an effective attack 3rd shot (long dink) AND that your team moved forward to finish the rally with the put-away shot.
The only way you can score in 5 shots is to meet both these requirements. There is simply no other way to score a pickleball point in 5 shots.
This video provides you with specific tips you can use to locate your 3rd shot (long dink) to apply more stress on the return team. Our pickleball tips are for both player selection and location. The objective of this shot is to hopefully generate an attackable fourth shot from the return team.
We also give you some pickleball tips about moving after the 3rd shot to take advantage of the opportunity. The player who can move the best on the serve team does not hit the 3rd shot. This player should be ready to move up on a good 3rd shot to attack any resulting pop-up.
None of this is to say that you should just charge in after the pickleball 3rd shot. If it is high, then you want to stay back and defend.
Here is a video going over just that:

At the end of the video, we give you a specific scenario that sets you up well to score in five.
