Strokes

When I practice the Forehand Topspin, I always hit my head. How do I avoid this?

Hi Chris,
You need to stop before your head or get your hand to touch your head rather than your bat.

Forehand Topspin Variations
A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.

Chris, use aversion therapy. Stick some pins into the bat edge. You'll stop pretty quickly then, I'm betting :)

Thought of so too. XD

I sometimes have a bad habit of not rotating my body properly when playing a forhand. I have hit my own free hand ruining my own shot. Fortunately i haven't injured myself. I will pass on the pin idea though. Maybe i should try holding an egg in my free hand!
