McClayson Interview
Part Deux
Is there more to Doc McClayson
than just racquetball and more racquetball??
Cindy Kitchen: Doc, what
would you say would be the two keys to improving in racquetball?
Doc MM: Cindy, I would say,
it would have to be Love and the ability to Analyze your own games and
learn from them. I see a lot of players, I won’t mention any names, that
make the same mistakes over and over and over and they don’t do anything
to correct them and that’s why these certain players plateau out at
their respective levels.
CK: We’ve heard that you
took some major Donut beatings from some very good ‘A’ players, how did
you feel? And what did you do to improve yourself afterward?
MM: I didn’t feel bad or
good or whatever, I had no emotions either ways, I took the losses in
strides and went back to the drawing board and made a careful analysis
of what I was doing right and what I was doing wrong. I like the entire
process of playing for the great exercise and competition and then the
excellent analytical process afterward.
CK: So, you’re saying that
losing can actually be better than winning because you can actually
learn more from the losing efforts?
MM: Most definitely Cindy
darling, if you think what I have on the website is a lot of racquetball
information, you haven’t seen my handwritten notes on why I lost certain
games and matches, and I have over 20 filled notebooks of my analysis.
The website is just the tip of the iceberg of my racquetball journey
that I enjoy sharing with my fellow racquetball athletes.
