Forehand

what is ultimate forehand? it is power, angel, deep and consistency. u might have this xperience, one day u are totally on, one day totally off. u don't know what happen. in this clinic, we are gonna learn the proper form. u can trust ur form. the cross court, the down the line. the deep shot. short ball. then ur opponent will fear ur forehand.

--grip: semi-west

--ready position: 1140
ready position is well balanced position. ur knees r slightly bend. u can quickly move to the right or the left. i see contantly out there when people played. their raquet is down there, they r looking over here, looking over there. they r not really paying attention to the ball. u have to have good ready position in order to be a good player. ur weight is down. ur eyes r focus. u have really big eyes, watching the ball coming.
again, ur feet are shoulder length split, ur knees are slightly bend. ur raquet is up. at first u may feel stupid, but it is ok.

--footwork: 1400
step out with outside foot. step cross. as u r close to the ball u start we call baby step to get ourself in the position. we plant our leg and drive to hit the ball. tennis is very much of timing game. that a little amount of time is very valuable.
reay position, footwork is prety important part of this puzzle.


--back swing: 1718
type A: big loop. it is kind of waste of the time. it is ok on the clay but ont on the other surface.
type B: compact stroke. it is an abbreviated swing.
tips: the back hand goes back together that will help rotate the shoulder.

Open & closed stances
2 types of stances. open stance and close stance. both of them used outside let to drive the hip and wieght forward.
closed stance: we had plenty of time, i run towards the ball, i plant the foot, i step and i drive through the target.

--Ball contact point:
where r we making the contact with the ball? it is the biggest misconception in people's mind. the proper contact point is right in front of ur front foot. so ur

whole body is behind the ball and then u can generate the power to hit the ball.
dip and lift: dip the knee and lift to hit the ball. that dip and lift actually will generate more power and more spin. let us utilize the biggest muscle in our

body, our leg and our butts. everything works together, my leg, my butts, my shoulder.. so we can generate all the power possible

--follow through:
the final piece of the puzzle is the follow through. without follow through, we lost the control because the ball stay at the string for a shorter amount of time.
a, it is gonna hurt us. if u want to hit the ball with power, u have to relax. the easier u feel, the more power u will hit. u lost the control by not following

through. u gain the control by following through.
