Introduction
Pickleball. Yes, I said it! It’s seems to be everywhere I look. There’s an obvious reason why it’s the fastest growing sport in the country. That’s a pretty good accomplishment for a somewhat new sport with a funny name!
We will teach you how to master the famous “dink shot” in pickleball. I started playing pickleball in camp many years ago. I thought everyone was joking when they were using the word “dink”. Fast forward 20 years and I clearly see “dink” was not a joke! In fact, it’s a strategic shot that is really fun to learn and will definitely improve your game.
If you’ve ever watched pro tennis players on TV, this will be even easier. I’ll assume if you’re reading this you’ve at least watched one tennis match in your life. So, remember when you watched, sometimes the players run to the net and hit a very soft shot that get’s their opponent running from back court to front court? If you said “yes” then you’ve got it! That shot is essentially a dink.
The Rise of Pickleball and Why Gear Matters
Let's take a step back and chat about why pickleball is the "it" sport of the decade. I mean, why is everyone and their grandmother getting in on this?
- Social Aspect: People love the camaraderie and low entry barrier. Heck, you could be 15 or 50, and still get in a good game.
- Easy to Learn, Hard to Master: The basics? Child's play. But nuances like the dink? Ah, there's the rub.
- Affordable: Unlike golf, where you'd sell an arm and a leg for gear, pickleball is pretty budget-friendly.
So, you're sold on the sport, but what about the gear? In my experience, The Big Dink paddles stand head and shoulders above the rest. Lightweight but powerful, they offer that sweet spot between control and pop. And folks, if you're keen on dinking, the Big Dink Original gives you that extra oomph.
