When serving a forehand side spin pendulum serve, which part of the ball do you aim for???

Hi Jim,

The key is to aim for the side of the ball.  If you are looking down on the ball and seeing it as a disc you are aiming for the inside of the ball.  You need to brush the ball so that you are generating spin and the ball heads forward.

Our Serving DVD will explain this clearly for you.

The high toss serve looks spectacular and it gets results. It is particularly suited to the pendulum serve but we encourage you to try it out with all of your serves. Follow these instructions and add the high toss serve to your repertoire.
