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.
