Brushing or Hitting The ball

Strokes

Hey. I'm just a bit unsure about brushing the ball or hitting the ball more.   I am a beginner, so should I put more momentum / speed into my attack strokes or brush them more?  Or is this just a personal preference? 

Thanks.

Hi Johnny,

Have a combination of both spin and speed.  To start with though keep your stroke slower and with less spin and aim for consistency to be able to get a lot of balls on the table in a row.

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.
