Strategy
Hello ,
in a few days i got a tournament. One of the best players , and my first opponent , uses a lot of spin on the ball. What is the best tactic to counter his tactic?
Thank you !
Hi Nick,
The forest thing is to get the ball back on the table from their spin ball. Use the angle of your bat to return the ball by counteracting the type of spin on the ball. You can also try to make your own topspin shot. If you brush the ball finely, it will tend to counter their spin. It all depends on the type and amount of spin they are generating.
Good luck with the tournament.

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.
