Looping vs driving
Strokes
Vincent Heveroh Asked 13 years ago
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.
