hello coach, it's difficult for me to see the angle of my bat to block top spin, is it a good idea to aim the net or to aim a little shorter as if I want to reach the table nearly as if I want a shorter ball? my balls are very high if my opponent as a strong top spin, difficult in english.......thanks to understand

thanks, I know is difficult!!!!
If the bat is horizontal it is hard to make a good contact because the ball is not seeing much of the bat. If you make the bat more vertical then you will have a better contact on the ball.
