I hate to start with all things wrong, but I do have to take stock of my game so here it is. Two takeaways from today's practices. One, I move further back from the T when I start to tire or when I start to loose my confidence. I did it when I was playing Keith the hard hitting obtuse angle hitter and I did it again when I started to really tired playing Jerry. The second fault lies with my judgement. Realizing I was tiring I lurched at the volleys even when they were too good to get or have any value in volleying so far behind the T. Along with that I'm still running into the corners too much or trying to half volley a deep shot when I should take it off the back wall instead. Lastly, my movement wasn't direct enough and I did not take the ball off my right knee and foot more often. I am too often off balance recovering from a lunge while moving back into position.
Positives! I volleyed great and I was attacking short repeatedly. I didn't let too many shots go pass me today. I was moving forward really well today! I can say the bike warmup and really opening my eyes wide to watch the ball and the player paid off nicely even when I was getting tired. I low volley drop on a stretch really well!
Things to remember!
1) Move forward!
2) Attack short (volley & half volley) as often as you can.
3) Keep the pace and pressure on.
