High bounce to backhand

Strokes

Hello Coach

At times I find that I receive a high bounce to my back hand (usually from a lob) and find it quite difficult to

hit the ball correctly at the top of it's bounce. I assume that you'd wait until the ball

drops to your correct hitting zone. I haven't seen any info on this shot but it would be

interesting to get your take on it.

Hi Eddie,

Take a look at this lesson on the Backhand Smash.  I think it will answer your question.

About the backhand smash-you once said that Longpips backhand smash is difficult.

But still possible.

So can you tell me how to do it,please?
