How to Deal With a No Bounce Return
Strokes
Arka Bose Asked 7 years ago
I just recently encountered a player who plays an awkward backhand stroke resulting in a very fast return with almost no bounce, like the ball drops in my side of the table and goes almost parallel to the table with very little bounce, I can't figure out how to return such kind of return. Most of the time I try to just lift the ball which results in a very bad stroke or hits the net, I've also tried topspin but it never works, How can I effectively return such a ball?
Thanks in advance

Hi Arka,
The ball may feel like it is not bouncing but it is probably just bouncing a little lower than you are expecting. Watch the ball carefully when he hits it. If the ball comes over the net then it is going to bounce a reasonable height.
Don't try to do too much with it if it is bouncing low. Just work on blocking the ball back to a good position or low as well.
