Serving
hi masters. I tend to look at the ball during contact to my bat when i do pendulum and reverse pendulum. It became my habit during service. But my friend told me that i shouldnt look at the ball. Im having a hard time hitting it without looking.rnrnIs it normal to look at the ball during these type of service?rnrnThanks.
Hi Jolas,
It is fine to look at the ball during service. In fact I would encourage it.
Varying the spin on your serve makes it harder to return. You can vary the type of spin but possibly even more effective is varying the amount of spin.

It is an interesting question. I tried to think what I do when serving. I think that for all serves but the pendulum I watch the ball very closely. However for the pendulum serve the ball is so close to my body that to watch it right onto the bat does make me feel a little bit funny. So I think that I don't actually watch the ball all the way onto my bat for the pendulum.
Ideally you would watch the ball all the way onto the bat.
I'd love for other players to concentrate on just how much they watch the ball during their pendulum serve and leave a comment to let us know.
