How to Hit a PERFECT Backhand Dink! by The Pickleball Clinic

Matt from The Pickleball Clinic shares his tips for mastering the backhand dink.

He explains that the backhand dink isn't about swinging hard but using a controlled push motion. Matt emphasizes keeping a straight arm, using the shoulder for movement, and avoiding wrist flicks.

He also highlights the importance of minimal backswing and positioning oneself behind the ball.

Players can make their backhand dink consistent and even offensive by following these techniques.

Key Points:

  • Controlled Push Motion: Instead of a hard swing, use a controlled push for the backhand dink.

  • Straight Arm: Keep your arm straight and use the shoulder for movement, not the elbow.

  • Stable Wrist: Avoid flicking the wrist; keep it steady throughout the shot.

  • Minimal Backswing: Keep the paddle in front of your feet, avoiding large backswings.

  • Positioning: Always move side-to-side to position yourself behind the ball for better control.
