Pendulum Serve Hit Point

After reviewing your video on Pendulum serve, it appears to me that a right hander is tossing the ball into themselves, hitting the ball just above their right hip, about 6 inches away. I think I have been chasing the ball, too high and in front of me. Also, for underspin, is your follow thru carving under and in front of the ball?

Hi Lance,

Yes the contact is near your hip where you can get better control and utilise your wrist better.

For the backspin brush right at the base of the ball.  Have a straight line with your swing and keep your wrist relaxed to get maximum spin.
