Hi Eric,

I wonder if you are watching the ball well enough.  It may be that you are mishitting the ball because of this.

Also take a look at the lesson we have on the Forehand Smash.  You may discover something else that will help you. 

Try doing the stroke slowly to start with and get the contact correct then speed it up as you feel comfortable.  Make sure you maintain the same technique as with the slow stroke.

The forehand smash is used when the ball is around shoulder height or above. It is a much harder stroke to play than it looks. Follow the tips on this video lesson to ensure your smash is an effective weapon.
