Hi Chee,

Firstly make sure you get the right technique with the stroke. Take a look at the lesson on the Forehand Topspin.

Then you need to do it many many times to perfect it.  It needs to become a natural stroke that is automatic.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
