    May 9 2024
    Today Michael O'Neal and Scott Fliegelman discuss the evolving strategy of the FIFTH shot drive in pickleball, moving away from traditional play, towards more aggressive tactics facilitated by advancements in paddle technology. They explore how these changes are affecting the game, including how to effectively use and defend against powerful drives. The discussion also covers the impact of new paddle technologies, like the Gen 3 paddles, contributing to harder hits with less effort and more spin, significantly changing gameplay strategies. Furthermore, they touch on personal experiences and techniques to adapt to and counter this emerging play style, emphasizing the need for recalibration in response to the evolution of pickleball equipment and tactics.
