Can We BEAT 4.0s with SWEET SPOT Paddles?

Two pro pickleball players… just trying to survive with trainer paddles... Elliott Schupp and I faced off against 4.0s using paddles with almost no sweet spot—and every off-center hit turned into a shank or a whiff. These things are unforgiving, and you feel everything. One bad flick? Dead. One lazy reset? Cooked. This match had momentum swings, nasty digs, hands battles, and maybe the first-ever trainer paddle golden pickle?! The goal was simple: survive the chaos, stay aggressive, and don’t miss the center of the face. Easier said than done. Huge thanks to Urban Pickleball Club for hosting and Elliott for bringing the heat as always. ❗️Shop My Signature Paddle HERE: https://boundlesspickleball.com/products/munro ❕ProXR Site (10% Off): CODE: MUNRO10 https://proxrpickleball.com/discount/MUNRO10?redirect=%2Fcollections%2Fshopall 👐Hesacore Grips: CODE: JACK10 https://shop.hesacore.com/?ref=bwyegeqa 🧘Bodhi Pickleball (15% Off): CODE: MUNRO https://bodhipickleball.com/8902527 Newsletter Sign Up: https://jacksjournal.beehiiv.com/subscribe 📍30% Off Ellesse CODE: APP https://newcobrands.com?sca_ref=6659511.cXC0XjlVa57 🔗Social Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejackmunro TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thejackmunro Elliott Schupp: @elliott_schupp_pickleball ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 Intro & Trainer Paddle Rules 1:00 Game 1 Starts 10:20 Game 2 Starts 20:30 Final Breakdown & Takeaways This video features two pro pickleball players taking on a doubles match using trainer paddles—a high-difficulty paddle with an ultra-small sweet spot.
