What is a drill?
A drill is a series of 6 balls played on repeat until the ball hopper is empty. A drill can be any combination of shots, with variable ball speed, spin, height, position and feed rate.
Types of Drills
Deep Serve Return (forehand)
Deep Serve Return (backhand)
Forehand with backspin
Forehand with top spin
Narrow Dinking
Crosscourt Dinking
Kitchen Dinking
Customizing Drills
Each of the 12 drills on the Titan Drills app can be fully customized. We suggest you start with the drills that come pre-programmed on your Titan machine and then start adjusting them to suit once you get used to the settings.
To edit a drill, press and hold on the drill name.
All 6 balls in the drill series can be customized. You can adjust the height, speed, location, feed rate and spin for each ball in the series.
You can make each ball different, or all the same - it's totally up to how you want to play.
Drill Simulations
Not sure which to choose? Watch a simulation of the drill before you even start.
Click the Simulate button at the bottom of the Edit Drill screen to watch a simulation of the drill.
The Titan Drills app’s ball delivery simulation is designed to provide an approximate visualization of your drill settings. However, the actual ball placement during use may vary from what is displayed in the simulator due to several factors beyond the app’s control. These factors include but are not limited to:
- Ball firmness: Firmer pickleballs tend to travel further than softer ones.
- Machine battery level: Lower battery levels can affect the consistency and power of ball delivery.
- Slight machine variance: Minor differences in machine calibration may impact ball placement.
- Short time between balls: Rapid sequences may cause slight deviations in ball accuracy.
- Environmental factors: External conditions such as wind may alter the trajectory of the ball.
We recommend using the app as a guide, while allowing for potential variations during practice.

Do I have to be a member to play?
No membership is required! We have drop-in play options for trying out the courts, those traveling to Starkville, or players who only play occasionally.
If you play twice a week or more, you will be saving money to have a membership which you can join on our Court Reserve app. If you need help, be sure to reach out, and we can help you pick the best plan for you.
Can I bring a friend who isn't a member?
Of course! We are happy to have visitors come with our members. You will pay your usual $2/hour court fee, and theirs will be the usual drop-in play fee.
Can I play for more than 2 hours at a time?
Visits are paid for in two hour increments. Nearing the end of the two hours, our team members will stop by to let you know the time and add more hours if you would like to keep playing. If you do, our team members will automatically add those hours to your payment so you can have uninterrupted play.
Can I come without a doubles or singles partner?
Absolutely. With twelve courts, we have room for you to mingle, meet new players, and make your rounds playing. Our goal is to provide a friendly atmosphere where you can bring your crew or come alone find a new crew.
I have never played, but I want to learn. Do you offer lessons?
We will offer clinics, camps, and lessons at PKL Row. Follow us on facebook and instagram to keep up with our upcoming events so you can join in! If you want to learn before then, we have room for you to come and dink around to try it out before you learn the real rules.
Can I reserve courts for an event?
You sure can! We offer event packages where you can reserve select courts for a certain time period to play, host, and party. This is a great option for birthdays, corporate events, and more. We offer packages to have space in The Hangar as well.
Members can also reserve a court up to 14 days in advance if you are only needing a single court.
Is there anything to do other than pickleball?
So glad you asked…YES! We also have The Hangar, our indoor and outdoor bar with beer, seltzers, loaded teas, and more. We have a sim bay, comfy areas to hang out, and a beautiful patio to watch the planes land and take off. Whether you want to work, socialize, or grab a drink with friends, we have a spot ready for you.
