Missing long-reach returns with heavier setup

Equipment

I've recently switched to a heavier blade setup (main difference is due to double inverted instead of inverted + OX long pips), and the returns where I stretch out and barely manage to flick the ball back no longer work; my flick just doesn't get to the return angle in time (The FL handle on the heavier blade might also be a minor factor here). Is this fixable somehow or is it just one of the drawbacks of using a heavier setup?

Hi Mark,

I think it is something you will just to with time.  You will eventually get the angle right automatically.
