Hi Osman,
Use variation of speed and spin to make it more difficult. The faster that you play the easier it is for him to outpace you and give you speed back. Use a lot of slower topspin balls.
For our Premium members you can look at this lesson in our Match Strategy section on Playing A Blocker.

Tactics Against Penhold Players
When playing penhold players it is important to remember to first analyse your opponent as you would if they used any grip. What are their strengths and weaknesses? A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
