  • Excellent tips, great videos
I have had group and 1:1 lessons with Mike and he really knows his stuff and is able to explain in a very accessible way. His book is a fun tip packed read. The videos are really fun and helpful. Get this book as it is great to learn the basics and strategies.

  • Everything you need to know
As a senior player this book was instructive, well written, and humorous. Read it twice and my Pickleball game has improved as a result. Often in the middle of games I try to remind myself of some of the techniques and strategy Mike writes about. Enjoyed!

As a super sr pickleball player, Mike’s great cues and coaching tips help compensate for limited mobility etc But if all else fails the attitude of do your best and have fun shines thru. Pickleballers laugh a lot.

  • Mike’s book may actually force me to learn how to play pickleball!
I knew from Mike’s previous work that he was a compelling author on topics of life and pickleball, but I have always been able to resist the lure of the pickleball court and the pursuit of athletic glory, remaining steadfast in my belief that « sports are for other people », a view supported by two of my three children (there is always an outlier). Now, having read Mike’s new book, I am not so sure! The mere idea that I have thought about picking up the game is a testament to Mike’s skill as a wordsmith and powers of persuasion. ... show more

  • A comprehensive guide to learning and loving pickleball!
Mike Branon has written a FUN, easy to read, and comprehensive book touching on the basics of learning to play and LOVE Pickleball for all the right reasons. He includes the links to instructional videos for people to peruse, use, and share! He explains the game well. I might be biased as I've learned a thing or two from him ; ). I am having all of my new "over 50" students purchase a copy immediately! ... show more
