How to play with very stiff Off+ bat

Salman Baig Asked 11 years ago

Hi Coach,

My bat has stifness & hardness of 9.3/10 (Yasaka 3d max carbon). It has rocket hits but in loop the trajectory is very low resulting in putting too much effort. It literally consume up my energy for any rally which goes for 5th ball and let me lose the following points easily. So what should be best technique for playing with such a stiff Off+ bat?

I am using hexer duro on FH & Joola express 2 on BH and do looping with only FH.

Thanks

Salman

Hi Salman,

Yes this can be a problem.  It is more a matter of developing the touch to be able to use a blade that hard and fast.  There is no quick solution here.  Just keep working on your touch and control over the next few months.  You will get used to the feel of it.
