How do you do a very short pendulum serve? I know how to do one but not very short.

Hi Eric,

The way to get the ball short on the serve is to brush it finer.  Make the same action but focus on the contact being thinner so that they ball doesn't travel as far.

The exact same serve placed to a different spot on the table can be much more difficult for your opponent to return.
