How to Master the ATP Shot with Tyson McGuffin

Professional player Tyson McGuffin explains the technical nuances of the Around-the-Post shot, which is one of the most exciting offensive maneuvers in pickleball.

The most common mistake players make when attempting an ATP is making contact with the ball way too early.

To execute this shot successfully, you must wait and allow the ball to travel as far outside the court as possible.

Letting the ball drop lower to the ground gives you a better angle to hit into the open part of the opponent's court.

Maintaining a short and sweet swing is critical because the goal is to redirect the ball rather than over-hitting it with power.

Keeping your elbow tucked in helps maintain control and ensures the paddle stays within your peripheral vision during the strike.

You should strive to keep your hips open and your belly button facing the target rather than closing your stance.

When hitting the ball, imagine a clock face and aim to make contact on the outside edge at the three o'clock position.

Developing lateral movement is necessary to track the ball effectively as it moves away from the sideline and toward the post.

Key Points:

• Avoid hitting the ball prematurely and wait for it to move far outside the court sideline.

• Focus on redirecting the ball with a compact swing rather than trying to generate excessive power.

• Keep your hips open and maintain a wide, balanced stance to track the ball's lateral path.

• Tuck your elbow in to keep the shot controlled and within your field of vision.

• Contact the outside edge of the ball at the three o'clock position to guide it around the net post.
