    Love those backhand tips! I've found that Oliver-Sport paddle adds a whole new level of precision and power. Trust me, it's a game-changer!

    Great tips. Tip three really rings true for me. I have been loading up on the backhand with a huge backswing. Something to fix! Thank you! 😊

    A good backhand has much to do with footwork closing your stance so that you are not reaching across your body allows you to get full body rotation for power.

    I realize recently and your video reiterated watching the ball all the way to the paddle. I don’t watch on the backhand side but do on the forehand side. I wonder if it has to do with my dominant eye which is my right eye. Serena Williams former coach Patrick Mouratoglou talks about this a lot w tennis. Taken to the extreme, maybe your dominant eye should help determine what side you normally play if you stack. A video on this would be cool and different.

    • @BetterPickleball

      You are correct the tilt of the head and which eye is dominant can be factors. We experimented with that a lot in my golf days, particularly with putting. I'll add it to the list

    Definitely can work on my backhand!

    For me, watching the ball to contact point has always been easier and more natural for backhands as I have no where else to look. Oddly, I don't have the best backhand in tennis but it's the better shot for me in pickleball and yes, continental.

      For most of us one side is easier than the other. I like my backhand too. 😜

    What about turning your torso (and legs if needed) so you aren't putting all that stress on your shoulder for the backhand?

    • @BetterPickleball
      @BetterPickleball  Місяць тому

      Yes turning the body and using core and lower body may reduce stress on the shoulder.

    I never saw any pingpong players play with double handed BH… PB paddle isn’t heavy to be held with 2 hands… Why do people do play with 2 handed BH?

      Ben johns is a former ping pong player and he will occasionally use a DHBH. A DHBH adds power to shots that allow you time to swing a DHBH. Sometimes you need to hit a single handed backhand when time is an issue. As you progress in this game, you will understand

      two hands adds stability to the paddle. Many tennis players are already comfortable with two hands.
