Message: [QUOTE="CONN78SEJ, post: 5189515, member: 10604"] That’s true but all racquet sports are not equal. Tennis is by far the hardest to master, some people just never learn how to control the racquet face or hit with power and still keep the ball from landing in the street. Pickelball has taken off because it’s similar to tennis but using a paddle makes it much easier for the average Joe to control the racquet face and the court is much smaller. It’s funny that a few people “get” the mechanics of tennis right away but others struggle with their serve, forehand, or backhand, no matter how hard they try. I taught tennis for years and it was a joy seeing the lightbulb go on in someone’s head when trying to develop a hard yet controlled serve with the “American twist”. I mean without trying to muscle the ball over net without hitting it 20 feet out. Lol [/QUOTE]
