Brent, I am subscribed to your email newsletter. Good stuff. I teach at The Briar Club, Houston, TX. I shared your recent video with some of the ladies teams that I coach. The 3rd shot was a big topic of discussion about a year ago, and I still stress the importance of coming in "on balance" I make it a pt. to not say, "Serve and Volley", but say, "Serve & come in." So many people think you have to get inside the service line, so they race in only to crash & burn. Keep up the great work.

@mca10spro Good to hear from you. Lots of great tennis in Houston. You're right about the crash and burn.

Gotta really work on that transitional shot...

@mca10spro Hey Mike. Good habits are so key to developing a solid foundation.

Tell me about where you teach.

@nineballcornerpocket It's so simple to do this drill in the very beginning. (Can't believe how old this video is in YouTube years!).
