Dear Coach:
I watching the other day your video on keeping the ball on table and doing the basics perfectly. I was playing the other day with my friend and was able to win more points by just keeping the ball on table. He started making more unforced errors.
Thank you for the great video. I think that is the skill every player should learn be a beginner or a professional player. Keeping it simple.
With Warm Regards,
Ram
