Do you do DPS drills?
We did some yesterday, and I was able to do 10 (25Y pool) - without kicking.
last time I really paid attention and counted in this kind of a drill was about 2-3 months ago, and the best I could do was 13 with a rare 12, and those were with kicking.
So, Improvement !!! Gotta love it.

So was this with a pull buoy? 10 strokes or 10 cycles? If you're talking 10 strokes that's impressive without a kick. I could get into single digits, but probably not without kicking.
Just work on getting a longer/better push off/streamline from the wall. The longer your push off, the less strokes you take, the less energy you expend :)
