I started this channel quite by accident, I was recording my games to do film study and get better. I did not have time or money for lessons from pro pickleball coach, so I started watching all my screwups. People that I was playing with started to ask if they could watch too and I said sure. That helped all of us a lot to improve our game, strategy, mental toughness, and techniques. Now we have new pickleball videos published several times a week. We occasionally have pro pickleball players on the channel. Mostly its non pro pickleball players on their quest to 5.0 pickleball. We have all levels come through the channel, but we concentrate on the 4.0 pickleball, 4.5 pickleball and up to 5.5 pickleball with the pros.

If you're seeing me today it's probably because you're struggling with your third shot drops. But don't worry because we have Andrew Bayliss and Keith Valentine to demonstrate the bucket drill. Keith takes it away. Hello YouTube this is Keith Valentine, I am the Pickleball Pirate. We're trying out some new technology here we, got this wireless Bluetooth mic. I got my workout partner Andrew with me, and we're going to be doing the bucket drill. What this bucket drill is, it is a third shot practice game. One of the best things to do when you're practicing pickleball is to make a game out of it. So what we call this is the bucket drill. We're going to put this in three different positions along the front line here to third shot so my goal is to try and beat him deep, keep him from hitting this bucket as best I can. I don't block him from hitting it but once he gets five shots on this bucket then we move it to the middle position. Then we move it to the next position here and we we've kind of upped the game. So you can just try and hit the bucket five times and and move it What we also do is this person here counts how many shots it takes him to get there  .

Then he counts how many times he's hit in the bucket so he tells me when to move it and we also count how many times he drops it in the bucket.
Then my goal is to try and beat him out of that.

The next time I go I'm going to try and beat his numbers that he puts up in this game. So it's a little bit competitive between us but it's a lot of fun
Please enjoy all right here we go man one
