Hi Alois, I have some strong forehand topspin problems. I can't find the proper angle to a long topspin shot. All of them are short and long. Please help me. Thanks.

Hi Joshua,

This is a matter of experimentation.  It is impossible to always get the right angle because it needs to change for each shot you play depending on the speed of the ball and spin of the ball coming to you.

Mainly try to keep your bat on one angle all the way through the stroke and keep watching each ball after you hit it to gain more information for the database in your brain.

When playing against a chopper, it is important to use the drop shot to break up your opponents rhythym. By forcing them to come close to the table, your next offensive storke will be more effective.
