Ball hitting my finger
Strokes
samuel benjamin Asked 13 years ago
I am a relative beginner. When I play, including rallying and serving, the ball hits my index finger a lot and I lose the point. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi Samuel,
This can be annoying. It may be that you can watch the ball more closely. Also check that your finger is not creeping up the rubber during the rally. It should be down really low but still on the rubber.

Forehand Counterhit
The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:
- Your feet position
- Your start position
- Your finish position
If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
