Forehand Smash

Strokes

Don Smith Asked 14 years ago

I am losing matches because I can't finish the point when I get a hgh ball on my forehand. I am consistently hitting the ball long. What are the most probable causes?

Hitting it too soon? Bat angle?

Thanks

Hi Don,

It could be a few things but try hitting the ball when it is a bit higher and start your bat up higher. HAve you taken a look at our lesson on the Forehand Smash? If not take a look. There may be something there that will help you.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
