Strokes
Hello PingSkills,
I noticed that whenever I switch from forehand to backhand or vice versa, I tend to shift my grip a little and this hinders my reaction speed, however if I do not shift my grip, the racket feels like it's in the wrong position and it also limits the flexibility of my strokes.
My question is:
Is it normal to shift my grip or am I holding the bat wrongly?
Hi Jack,
You have found out why it is difficult to have two different grips.
The solution is to find a neutral grip that feels reasonable for both sides. Do a lot of switch hitting in practice and see if you can find that happy medium. Also hold the grip a little looser. This will allow subtle adjustments without having to move the racket in your hand.
In this video we will discuss and demonstrate different training drills and strategies that you can use to help develop and improve the loop that you get on your forehand topspin.
