Training
My playing partner happens to be a lefty, so I have gotten a lot better with my backhand than I previously was. The problem is, when I go to play a righty, my forehand seems to be a lot weaker, as it doesn't get as much practice. Keep in mind me and my playing partner are at the intermediate level, so the majority of shots are cross court, hence why my forehand is not hit to much.
Thanks!

Hi Drew,
In your hitting or training times take the time to just practice on the forehand diagonal. You can practice hitting as many balls as you can fro your forehand to his backhand corner. It will probably also improve his backhand.
To win against defenders you need to think about your tactics. Simply hitting every ball hard makes it easy for the chopper to get into a nice rhythm. You are much better off varying the speed of your attacks and drawing your opponent in and out.
