Strokes
To help keep the push low should I hit the ball right off of the bounce as it is rising? or at the top of the ball's travel? or just after the top of the ball's rise on the way down?
Hi Jim.
Try at first to hit the ball early. This will help to get the ball lower and also shorter on your opponent's side. Focus on a brushing contact on the ball and a soft hand as well.
Take a look at the lesson on The Push in Detail for some more help.
A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
