Penhold Chopping

Strokes

Martin Coronel Asked 12 years ago

How can you do a backhand and forehand chop when you are a penholder?

Alois Rosario Answered 12 years ago

Hi Martin,

It is a more difficult stroke. That is why you don't see many penhold choppers. I know of one that still plays in Fiji.

It is a matter of getting the bat angle right and laid right back.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
