Backhand block shots - front of the body

Strokes

Il Ill Asked 10 years ago

Master Rosario,

All backhand-block shots hitting the ball right front of the body?

Or sometimes there is possibility to do left or right?

Thank you.

Hi Il,

You should make the shot from in front of your body whenever possible. This will give you the best chance to see the line of the ball and get control of the shot as well.

Only if you are really caught for time should you then hit the ball from outside the line of your body.
