The Killer Forehand Part 2

In the batter’s box with the open stance Killer Forehand.

You can’t fire a canon from a canoe. And you can’t hit the
Killer Forehand without a good hitting stance.

The hitting stances provide power, balance and disguise for your
strokes. When you arrive at the ball, you need to be in a stance that allows you
all shot possibilities.

The two desirable hitting stances are an open stance and a neutral
stance.

For a better understanding of that, let’s go to the sport of baseball.
The batter has to start outside the batters box before the pitch is thrown and then
had to enter the box as the pitcher throws the ball.

To master the Killer Forehand you must also hit from a netural stance.

The batter went into the box with his back foot. In tennis, that’s called
the open stance forehand.

The killer forehand also is hit using the neutral stance where the front
foot steps forward toward the target. You must master hitting the killer forehand from
both the open and the neutral stance.

You’ll notice the open stance has only the backfoot in the batter’s box. Frequently, there’s no time to step into the ball…
