Hi Kurian,

The main thing with the short pimple is that you will be able to hit the ball flatter and perhaps faster.  You can use it for flat counterhit and blocking as well as punching the ball.  You will also be able to use it for a little topspin but this is not it's strength. 

Try to get into flatter faster rallies with it rather than push and topspin rallies.

We will be covering this with a Video lesson in our Premium Members Course on Match Strategies.
