you want the contact point of the hit to be in front of your body
on the serve a pull back choice is to come across the upper chest
on the backhand volley have the breakout at a left angle– in front of the body– racquet head slightly kicked above the wrist
watch Stan drive the tip of his racquet down the line
when you get a short incoming shot– step up into the court and play power offense
on the slice shot set the racquet angle early
if your forehand is your weapon side — chose wisely and run the shot around and play big offense
to fight off the jam– pull the lead foot away from the body and pull the hitting arm in– trying to create room to hit
on the backhand preparation get the elbows in — get a tight coil
on the high incoming ball –still get the racquet below the flight path and hit up on the shot
if you jump on the hit maintain core balance
on the 2 handed backhand finish I like- both elbows up and the racquet’s bottom label up to the sky
on your forehand rotation keep the non hitting hand on the racquet — it helps compact the shot
after you finish your hit — move and reposition — assume your shot is in and move to get ready for the next shot
on the return start some players like to have one foot in front — a runners start
