Hi Yong,
You use your whole arm for the smash. You need to start with your bat up high at around shoulder level so that you can come through flat and straight.
Take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Smash in our free lessons.
To smash a high backspin bal you need to open up the angle of your bat a little to allow for the backspin. This is something that we will cover in a video response to a previous Ask the Coach question. Keep a watch out for it.
