Hey,

I just finished my last tournament of the year – more on that later.

While I’ll be doing a lot of retrospection over the next couple of weeks—especially with the holidays coming—the first thing I want to share in this newsletter is a SUPER fun video I made with Friday Pickleball.

Also, make sure you read till the end because I have a special announcement you won’t want to miss. 😊

Happy Friday…I mean Thursday. 😉

5 Ridiculous Pickleball Strategies That Just Might Work

They say pickleball is not a solved game.

So, along with the guys from Friday Pickleball, we decided to try out some crazy and ridiculous strategies to see how true that is.

Hilarity ensues (as you can tell by the comments on the video)!

And honestly, #5 in the video might just change the fate of the pickleball world…

😏

Which strategy is your favorite?

ENJOY!

UPDATE ON MY PRO PICKLEBALL JOURNEY

Below, you’ll see all the matches played this past weekend and the scores. USA Nationals did this amazing thing by having a camera on every court.

So I have footage of all the matches! 🙂 

In addition, I made a quick recap video for you to watch 🙂 

If you don’t have time to watch, I recommend skipping to game 3 of my match against M. Humberg and C. Diamond (my roommate).

We were down 3-9 in the 3rd game and won! 🙂 

Bragging rights have been regained after he took me out the last time we played!

PS—Matthew Schwartz. A few weeks ago, pickleball writer Matthew Schwartz reached out to me for an interview. He was interested in my story and how all this craziness got started. 🙂
