Drive
Strokes
Julio Torres Asked 12 years ago
Hi alois and Jeff
In spanish we use the word "drive" to make reference to the forehand, and "reves" for backhand.
I listen the past week in some web lessons about the "forehand drive", and the "backhand drive".
What is a "Drive"?
Thanks for answer

Hi Julio,
A drive is another term for the Forehand Counterhit and Backhand Counterhit. Take a look at those links to make sure we are talking about the same thing.
