Tip of the Day
Transform your mixed doubles strategy with Jessie Irvine and Patrick Smith!
This mixed doubles tip is to keep hitting the ball to the weaker player, usually the female player.
This strategy works because it's communicated beforehand, allowing the other player to focus on being aggressive.
Jessie's goal is to keep the game simple and stick to the plan. Patrick should creep over and apply pressure, ready for popups that he can put away.

Gear Review of the Day
Farmer Lanky Pickleball says the Selkirk Labs 005 Pickleball Paddle has a new face and a hole in the throat for quicker swing speed.
However, Farmer Lanky also mentions that the paddle has a lot of inconsistencies when hitting anywhere except directly in the sweet spot. He feels that the paddle is less powerful and has a smaller sweet spot compared to other paddles.
Farmer Lanky also mentions the paddle doesn't have a good grip for spinning the ball. Despite these issues, he says the paddle is durable and has a good warranty.
