Penhold Chopping
Strokes
Martin Coronel Asked 13 years ago
How can you do a backhand and forehand chop when you are a penholder?
Alois Rosario Answered 13 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.
