Likely To Improve Your Game

This book offers a good deal of useful information to the beginner and intermediate racquetball player. Even if you have played racquetball for some time, this book should still offer you some practical advise and strategies to improve your skills. The book is logically organized around 18 "steps to success," and there are instructions for specific drills to be carried out individually or with a partner to master each step. A number of figures complement the explanations throughout the book, though I wish the author had also included some real-life pictures to better illustrate some of the techniques. I have played racquetball intermittently for many years without much formal instruction, and this book, indeed, improved my game. All and all, this is a good source to read and refer to if you wish to develop as a racquetball player.

Be a better player, if you have not had other instruction.

This book was definitely designed for a beginner to low intermediate player that has not had any organized racquetball training. The six rules to a better game really have helped me, by teaching me winning strategy. The six rules are also not to overwhelming to stay focused on the techniques during my games.Nice workbook format with very good diagrams and practice drills to actually get you on the court practicing. The practice drills focus on building each individual skill allowing the end result to come to you naturally over time and practice (sorry the perfection of the skill does take time and practice- otherwise we'd all be incredible wouldn't we)? I also liked that fact that the author did not bore me with the history of the game, the racquet, or many other frivolous items (there are a few, but they are quick). He gets down to the business of how to simply play better racquetball. I cheated and skipped around from chapter to chapter getting the most bang for my buck in the shortest time. If something in a chapter needed some supporting info or skill I was referred back to the other chapter. However, I read the entire book and did find some great info on areas that I was more familiar with before I started the book.If you are an advanced player look elsewhere for improving an intermediate or better game. If you are starting out or never learned racquetball strategy you can't go wrong with this book.

Good for Learning and Reference

This book has been a great source of information and has helped to improve my game. The author does a good job of identifying the different aspects of the game and describes each well. The various shot drills and court diagrams are also a great learning tool. Anyone who wants to improve their racquetball and follows this manual can't help but get better.

Good Overview/Practice Book

This is a worthy book to have around. It includes many drills to help you home in, especially useful are the "what youre doing wrong" sections.

Good drill book

This book is good for people who are just beggining and for people that have been playing for a while. This book has alot of the usual knowledge and strategy but alot of drills and dril charts that have improved my game. This book never leaves my bag
