Different body size = different stroke

DHS Lover Asked 12 years ago

Hi PingSkills, I want to ask what about if a tall/short and fat/thin body size may have a little bit start and finish position to get the ball ? for example if a tall one topspin the ball to high, the ball will go out so he must swing it a little low and also for the short one.

So, what do you think about that ? please for the answer :D thank you very much.

Hi Frendy,

The basics remain the same for all body sizes. Even if you are tall you need to make sure you finish in the same position. You can alter the angle of your bat slightly to get the ball lower.
