What is the rule of thumb for when to use a loop and when to use a drive?

Hi Vincent,

A lot depends on the type of ball your opponent doesn't like.

Against a heavy backspin ball as well you are probably better to loop while against a higher blocked ball you are better to drive.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.
