I've found that if I use my left hand to take the racquet back on the bachand slice, where my right arm is in tension pulling toward the ball, analogous to holding a sling shot with the right hand and pulling back on the elastic with the left hand, when you want to hit the ball, the left hand lets go of the racquet. You don't have to think about spreading the left arm back, it automatically goes back as when you let go of the elastic on the sling shot.
Hi Brent, that's an amazing tip. Thanks for sharing that with us. I know that I don't extend my non-racket hand behind my body as you illustrate here, and this makes my ball go more cross court than I wish. I'm going to start practicing this. Thanks again Brent ! - you have the best tennis tips on the net - by far !
