Should I switch grips?

Lukas Haraldsen Asked 10 years ago
Hi guys.
So earlier today, I switched from penhold to shakehand, and my spin and backside were a lot better. My forehand and smashes were a bit worse though. But in general I was playing better. Should I keep playing shakehand and just practice my forehand, or should I switch back to penhold? Lukas

Hi Lukas,
If it feels more comfortable stay with it for a while. Give it a week or more though before you make a decision. Often when we make a change it all feels good because it is new. Let that novelty factor wear off and then see what you think.
