What is an ideal contact point for BH and FH? 

Because: 

BH- bat is close to the stomach. 

FH- bat travels from far from the back. 

Appreciate it.  Love u guys!

Hi Ashok,

With the forehand you actually turn your body slightly so that you are still hitting the ball from in front of your body.

If you get someone to throw a ball to you and catch it in front of your body with 2 hands, this is a good contact point for all of your control strokes.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
