7 Day Free Trail - https://www.skool.com/senior-tennis-unpacked-8081/about Senior Tennis Unpacked Community Episode Description Jonathan Stokke is back for his third appearance, and this time we're getting into the one thing that beats pace, power, and fancy shot-making at every recreational level — consistency. Not the "just keep it in play" advice you've heard a hundred times. Jonathan breaks down exactly why senior players give away points they should be winning, what speed you should be hitting at on any given day, and why your ego is probably your worst opponent on the court. Key Takeaways Winners don't happen on command — your opponents will miss for free if you stop helping them Your job number one from the baseline in doubles is simply to make the ball — everything else is job two and three The driving analogy: your shot speed needs to match conditions, not your ego You don't hit where you aim — and that's actually an argument for aiming middle, not against it The Stokke Six: the six most common ways recreational players give points away, and the three that show up most in doubles Hit as fast as you can and as close to the lines as you can — knowing you can still make the ball The 2% principle: you don't jump a level by thinking harder, you get there by earning slightly better reps Jonathan Stokke: www.stokketenniscoaching.com Stokke Doubles Academy: https://www.skool.com/stokke-doubles-academy/about ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 — Coming Up - Show Introduction 01:42 — Winners Don't Happen on Command 02:46 — Help Them Miss: The Real Strategy 03:57 — Job One from the Baseline: Make the Ball 05:26 — Match Your Speed to Conditions 08:24 — Shot Selection: Do Less, Win More 11:36 — The Stokke Six: Where Points Go to Die 14:43 — The Ego Check: What It Really Takes to Level Up 1…
