Hi Alois, I have some strong forehand topspin problems. I can't find the proper angle to a long topspin shot. All of them are short and long. Please help me. Thanks.

Hi Joshua,

This is a matter of experimentation.  It is impossible to always get the right angle because it needs to change for each shot you play depending on the speed of the ball and spin of the ball coming to you.

Mainly try to keep your bat on one angle all the way through the stroke and keep watching each ball after you hit it to gain more information for the database in your brain.

Snake Shot

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
