Straight Ahead

Strokes

I have a tendency to hit a no spin ball over the end of the table.  Should I hit it more straight ahead?

Hi Joseph,

If yo are hitting the ball too long against the no spin ball then get your bat moving more forward.  Also you can change the angle of your bat to cover the ball a little more.  It doesn't take much of an adjustment.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
