You said for the forehand topspin, you should start with the racket at your waist and end at your eyebrow. I end just over my shoulder, so a bit farther. Is it bad if i follow through too much? thanks

Hi Evan,

The finish position is really important.  If you go across your face to your other shoulder you are playing too big a stroke and also you are throwing yourself off balance.  Try to focus on this finish position and see if you can get it just right.  I think it is a really vital part of the stroke.
