I have talked to a lot of pros on the Pickleball Fire podcast but I don’t think I’ve ever heard such a complete teaching system for Pickleball as the one Tim Hensley has developed. It is called TRUST and it came from Tim’s experience as a frustrated professional tennis player. Be sure to give this episode a listen as he has some great insights that go way beyond just teaching people how to have the proper technique.
In this episode we discuss:
- Why Tim was a frustrated professional tennis player
- What he did differently when he started to play Pickleball
- What Tim was not taught during his tennis career and why it’s critical for success in any sport
- What are the five two-shot combinations which make up the game of Pickleball
- How to know where the ball is going 80% of the time
- The TRUST system Tim developed and how it can help your game
- How a very common strategy is actually a very weak game plan
- What it means to win the point and how this compares to a game style where you are trying to make your opponent lose the point
- Playing singles during a doubles game
- The lies we tell ourselves and how they impact our game
