Tennis Tip: Forehand Service Return Tactic

[mannyschotz]

@queenofcourt jeff salzenstein is blind? hardly. the guy is one of the best players in the world. i am blind? yeah, maybe, which is why i was asking for advice. but i did play #1 at a Division I school so not completely blind.

perhaps you would enlighten me with your insight and credentials, queen.

great tip, jeff.

can i ask a general forehand question?

i am a former college player teaching my young son the basics. given the mechanical differences between the so-called modern forehand and the traditional forehand, do you start a child these days with the 'low to high, linear, eastern grip' stroke or do you introduce the forehand as a semi-western stroke with the higher start and lower finish?

thanks.
