Hi sir alois. I have a question. I'm struggling with my backhand chop return cos the ball bounces high and my opponent have the advantage to attack.. Should I change my rubber into pimple? or I'll replace it with thick inverted rubber? thanks in advance..

Hi Alex,
I think the better solution is to change your stroke slightly. Aim lower.
The two things that determine the height of the push are the angle of your swing and the contact on the ball. So to get the ball lower flatten out the angle of your bat and brush the ball more finely. Experiment and see if you can get the ball lower.
