Great instruction Kevin. You broke it down in a way that was very intuitive and easy to understand. I would like to see more videos on the different types of volleys. I find myself struggling with putting away the in-between volleys that are above the shoulder but not one which you could hit overhead, especially when the return is a floater or lacking pace. Another one I make mistakes with is when someone hits a slice and I get aggressive on the volley and end up in the net.
Great video! I would love to see a video about the three types of volleys, especially the punch volleys. I get them rarely but when I do, they feel sooo good!
Your videos have lots of content. Will take time to digest. I would really like to see the videos on the other types of volleys you mentioned at the end. Thanks!
Thanks Kevin! Great explanations. I would love to see more types of volleys. I used to watch you at Essential Tennis. I am glad you have your own UA-cam channel now.
I'm semi-retired and teach tennis part-time (have been playing around 50 years). Your's is one of the best sites out there, and I regularly recommend it to students. Love the pushing and stepping description/ analogy and the way you simplify instruction. Kudos. (ps... where do you find those nice, simple tennis clothes. Love the blue, grey and brown-:)
Great video Kevin. Never appreciated why it’s so important to volley with my arms closer to my body and with the the wrist and shoulder aligned. Would love to see the other video mentioned and anything to do with volley footwork as that’s why I think I end up stretching.
I really like your wall analogy! I'm a teaching pro/coach and there are only a few channels I watch to pick up valuable nuggets I can use to help my players; yours is one of them--thanks!
Wow!!! Thank so much for video!! This will change my valley. I do really the rocking shrill in the end. Also please make 3 different kinds of Valley as mentioned. Can’t wait to learn about them.
Thanks for the awesome info on the volleys. Can you please clarify which parts of the hand (heel parts) should be use in the forehand and one-handed backhand in your next clips as well? Cheers ;)
Hi Kevin this really put a proper volley into sharp focus that REALLY improved my confidence and results at the net. Thank you and sure a more detailed video detailing the flat, knife etc would be GREAT. But also touching on the nuances of the half and full volley would clear up a few misconceptions I'm certain I have... would further increase confidence. You raised such a great point in that your opponents can instantly sense if you are feeling timid or tepid at the net so true. Excellent instruction, if I could respectfully offer some constructive critique, can you speak somewhat more slowly please. I started tennis age 4 and now at 68 still play doubles 9X a week. So I'm simply here to learn recognized modern techniques not take on Carlitos. I have all the time in the world for excellent instruction which your channel definitely brings to the viewer. Hey while I have you in my years of playing tennis I never managed to grasp a clear understanding of what the Australian Twist Serve involves. I hunch it is a very slight deviation from the Kick Serve. Frankly it's been super secretive info only known as privileged folklore all these years. One hallmark of Australian Twist is a high* degree of difficulty ( for the receiver) in reading that serve. Indeed I'm convinced a current opponent knows it, uses it and won't ever discuss this "privliged" secret technique. So I hope you can appreciate my curiosity as that curiosity is well over a half century old. Great channel. In times of strife, STAY CALM and play tennis 🫢👋🎾
Hi Kevin , On the forehand volley I think it is really good to keep the free left hand close to the racquet butt as you turn your body , which looks like you are catching a ball , or you are handcuffed . At one point in the video you are not doing that , and to be fair , Roger doesn't do it either . However , it is a great way to help ensure that your body turns in preparation which means that your right arm only turns as part of the body turn . When you see a player doing this , it looks so much more correct than if the left arm is just hanging down .
Thanks for the question. I use the handcuffs or hands together as a tool to help players who struggle with the idea of turning their shoulders and creating a strong structure. If the player doesn’t have the issue, then I prefer not to mess with the technique.
Yes I would like to know more. Great video! Also what type of ball machine are you using with the remote, I'm looking to buy one to help hit more balls
Great video ty for sharing do u have any thoughts about how tight one should hold his grip does it change in different volley situations incoming ball speed tighter if it’s high maybe drop volley looser maybe ?
Yes I’m in general you’re right. The tighter you squeeze the firmer the volley will be. The most you have access to the court (meaning able to hit down) the tighter you can be within reason. Very rarely am I at a full 10 tightness if the scale is 1 to 10. Thanks
I think you have it backwards on which side feels uncomfortable with the continental. Its the forehand that feels weak as the raquet face is off center unless you stand perpindicular to the net or manipulate your wrist. What makes it work for pros is "leading with the edge" and the slice motion, not a flat racquet face blocking the ball.
If you show action instead of talking too much, your videos will be watched much more. Instead of telling people something by talking, you can add your speech later by applying the movement.
Great video Kevin! Yes, I would really like to see the videos on the other types of volleys you mentioned at the end. Thanks!
Great video Kevin. I'd love to see you demonstrate the other types of volly.
Thank you! To push the wall, we need straighta arms and to make effort with the legs! So clear! Very good tip Kevin!
Great video as always! Yes, I’d love to see instruction on the other different volleys! Thank you!
Great instruction Kevin. You broke it down in a way that was very intuitive and easy to understand. I would like to see more videos on the different types of volleys.

Thanks, Kevin - I would definitely be interested in learning the three types of volleys.
Great video! I would love to see a video about the three types of volleys, especially the punch volleys. I get them rarely but when I do, they feel sooo good!
Thank you for this. I played doubles for the first time after singles for decades and was used for target practice.

i feel very uneasy using continental grip on my forehand (back hand is ok ) .. which alternative grip can i try when i hit forehand volley?
We need the Alcaraz dropshot and lob videos please 😩🙏
I think you have it backwards on which side feels uncomfortable with the continental. Its the forehand that feels weak as the raquet face is off center unless you stand perpindicular to the net or manipulate your wrist. What makes it work for pros is "leading with the edge" and the slice motion, not a flat racquet face blocking the ball.
Very clear explanation especially on the Pushing part, you made it so easy to understand with that analogy 👍🏻
Great good

Boom. Right on. Now I only need a ball machine....
