Work on the physical aspects of the game during your practices. It’s like you wouldn’t practice aiming in a real gun fight, you just take cover and shoot away! When you just play your game and flow during the game without much thought, then you have arrived at or are very close to the echelon of the racquetball fun ship. Believe it or not, there is such a thing as Over Focus, what is commonly called in special forces gun training classes as "Tunneling and over focusing on one object."

This over focusing is dangerous and very bad for your game because you are only focused on, for example, one shot to win it all, and forgets about your opponent’s positioning and that’s a big racquetball no-no. One such player that McClayson has much admiration for her diligent practices and love of the game is Marlene Righty. But when McClayson observe her play, he finds her over-focus and misses many easy balls. She has all the tools to become an excellent player, but her tunnel vision limits her on court performance.

Whereas, a rip it and ask questions later player like Terry Lefty is tough to beat, because TL just flow with the game and rips everything in sight. And some of his stroke are racquetball fundamental ugly step sister form, he gets the job done with a smooth efficient flow to his game. It’s like in art, if you draw the negative space around the object, the object will draw itself. In fighting, if you flow and let the chi flows naturally, you will find yourself hitting with more power and accuracy and you can take more pain pound for pain. The bottom line: Just get in there and enjoy yourself, the result will come.
