This review is from: Advanced Racquetball (Paperback)

I've been playing for 10 years (minimum of twice a week, three times/week for last 3 years) and started taking a few lessons a year ago. My club pro recommended this book, and has attended several boot camps run by Strademo. I devoured the book in 2 days, and highlighted points on almost every page. Biggest pointer: Defining the "action zone" where 90% of shots bounce to (between 28 and 38 feet)... I was continually playing too far up. If your opponent can kill a shot infront of that zone, let him have it. In stead, say back, and hope he misses and go for the rekill or a defensive shot. I implemented it and it's already helped my game. Also gives many fundamentals on technique, as well as how to make the shots that I never understood. It's only my 1st racquetball book, but Highly recommended. It will take me at least a year of practice to implement everything.
