Im really get messed up when it comes to drills. 
Im a little good at my backhand. They say but when it comes to my forehand. damn.

Should I change my handle?

Perhaps a picture to know the proper way of holding the racket. Thanks :D

Hi Erwin,

It doesn't sound like the handle is the problem.  I think just work on your forehand stroke.  Perhaps you can think about relaxing your grip a little and keep your wrist straight.

Yes, the grip looked good, perhaps a little tight.
