Hi Andrew,

The best way is to use your topspin.  Because the ball has backspin, you need to lift it more.  Therefore your stroke needs to be more vertical.

Take a look at the Lesson on the Forehand Topspin Against Backspin.  This will show you the correct technique to use.

This is an important stroke to master. Good luck Andrew.
