Strategy
Your feature story about John Hilton was awesome. I have been inspired to switch from long pimples to butterfly super anti. I want to play like him. I never even knew of him until I watched your show. Super anti is awesome with several gears you have to really engage the sponge to attack. My question is . Is super anti a good starter anti . It seems after about 3 hours of play my long pimple strokes are almost the same for anti. You guys are totally awesome. Many people at my club in nashville tn. Watch your videos.
Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for the kind words. Greta to hear you are able to get a lot out of the site.
It is great to hear that you are trying new things and having some success. Super Anti is good to start with. The strokes for anti and long pimples are very similar.
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.
