I'm in mid fifties, and am listed as a 4.5 ntrp, and have won norcal 4.5 recently, and a prize money tournament last month. That's at 210lbs, against guys less than half my age, 60lbs less than me.

The truth is, if you put the implements in place, you will stop making so many ues, and have more confidence, be able to make fewer ues while going for a lot more.

It's simple: unit turn prep earlier, faster uncoils, and defend your contact arc point in front of your body according to the incoming ht. of the incoming shot. Let the shot determine how far in front you hit, and become a timing expert.
