Usual learning time
Serving
Steven Watkins Asked 7 years ago
Trying not to get discouraged and need some perspective. For example have been rewatching and practicing the backspin and sidespin serves about 1 hour daily for one month and still really struggling. Happy to stick with it until I get it, but should learning these serves taking months or even years? Hearing some information about that could sure be encouraging (or not). I am a good athlete.
Thanks so much

Hi Steven,
It can take a long time to learn serves.
As a Premium member why don't you send me a short video of you doing the serves. There may be something simple that I can help you with. Even if the video is on a phone it will do.
If you can't do that let me know and we will find a different solution.
