I play with a penhold racket and am pretty decent and RPB but my coach plays as shakehand so should I switch to shakehand?A few weeks ago I tried shakehand but noticed that my control is not as good and my forehand smash, loop, and topspin are not as good as penhold. Do you guys think I should make the switch?
Hi Gerald,
It is more about how you feel with each grip. It sounds like you like the penhold grip better so stay with it.

Thanks, but I also saw that shakehand is stronger then penhold. Is it true?

It depends on your playing style, honestly. The grip used is dependent on the player, not common notion! Do what feels comfortable.
