Hi Kent,

The Pendulum serve usually has some sidespin so allow for that by changing the angle of your bat.  If the ball wants to go to the right then face your bat to the left.

It is important to understand the basic principles of spin and what you need to know how to combat it.

We have a DVD that will be able to help you.  Take a look at the Receiving Secrets Revealed DVD. It will give you a lot of insight into different aspects of returning all types of serves.
