Dear Alois and Jeff

There are just some intense moments when I forget to place the ball and just want to get the ball on the table. How can I overcome this?

Thanks

Hi Oliver,

The best thing is when you start to feel yourself in those situations, just take a nice long deep breath and remind yourself to ficus on your tactics.

A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
