Go to page 3 of the Common Elements Across the Grip styles and scroll to the middle of the page where there are the series of photos under the headline "The Start of the Release Across the Grip Styles". Check out how much these guys have gone up the back of the ball and where the ball is in position to them. The ball is still fairly close to them but the racquet has moved way up the back of the ball. No wonder these guys get such ferocious topspin. I agree that the pros don't go low to high, but they definitely move up the back of the ball like woah.

Has to be because we've counted the ball rotation on their forehands. One next step is to actually measure the angle of the swing plane...(Need a few $100,000 for Advanced Tennis and we're good to go...)
