Hi Michael,

This is the subject of our next DVD which we have in the planning stsge and will start to film shortly.

One of the keys is experience.  So while you are waiting, try to get as much experience against as many serves as you can.  This will help.

You need to watch carefully the action and the ball in flight.  Then also watch carefully where the ball goes after you hit it.
