Hello alois and jeff,

I was wondering what is the ideal service placement, speed and spin to use against choppers.

 Hi Jared,

In general it is good to serve short to a chopper.  This forces them to come in close to the table.  If you can then attack the next ball it will be more effective.

Of course there is no strict rule with this as it depends on the strengths of your opponent.
