Hi John,
This is a vital stroke in table tennis.
The first thing is to make sure you have your technique correct. The stroke needs to be more of a vertical action to lift the ball over the net. You also need to make sure you are brushing the ball on contact to get some topspin on it.
Take a look at the lesson on Forehand Loop Off Backspin. This should answer a lot of your questions about the stroke.
