Once you've mastered the start and finish position of the forehand topspin, you can start to focus on finer details. In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.

When I hit forehand topspin, it either goes into the net or too high so that my opponent crushes it into my face- should push forward? Is it something with my body movement?
Hi Hanson,
The height of the shot will depend on the path of your stroke and the contact. To get it just right, you need to practice the stroke repetitively for many months. This will allow you to get used to the different shots that are coming in and how to deal with them and have enough control to place the ball where you want it.
