Great video again, Ian!
Ian, good ideas, and while I haven't tried them out, really respect you for giving a shout out to to Tomasz at Feel Tennis. He has helped me out over the years so many ways, and it's a true professional like you who would give props where due.
Thanks! Great ideas now to execute!
OMG….so much more fun now–bring on the hard serves!! It works–stay clam!!
Your videos are really helpful. I would like to know if stepping across while playing forehand should be prevented? Thanks!
Hey! While playing forehand should stepping across be prevented and is it necessary to keep our eyes fixed on the ball while hitting?
Excellent lesson
Thanks Ian
Thank you for acknowledging Tomas M. for his instruction . His and your contribution to tennis is immeasurable. You both are heroes to millions of us.
Your forehand return for a hard serve is OK. Problem is the back hand return for a hard serve- especially from a left hander to a right hander. Thanks.
thanks
Thanks Ian,
We hear "keep it compact" on returning fast first serves, but that really is only half of the story (compact backswing). When we were in Cincinnati this year, I was amazed how how non-compact the follow through swings were. The guys have amazing short backswings but huge extension on the forward swing with a very flat, stable racket face and firmer grip on the returns, oven without even releasing the head at all. Granted us amateurs aren't facing 145 MPH serves, but would you recommend having long extension without releasing the head as a more advanced version, or more like this video with a full follow through?
Great lesson. After many years playing tennis I reached the same conclusion you presented in your video and it has been very useful for my game. Thank you for your excellent videos. I am learning a lot from them!!!
You're very welcome, Rodolfo.
