Pickleball at the Windy City

My rating: 5 out of 5

Sports involving wiffle balls get increasingly difficult to play as the wind picks up. Today was an amazing lesson in adapting your playing style to whatever side of the court you’re on. Grunting while returning serves northward, and light touches when returning serves southward.

This was all a very fun, however. Lots of laughs as top-spun balls pounded into the net and side-spun balls veered 20 yards off the court. Lobs were all but useless. Time to change tactics.
