Excellent tip btw. You’re the first person to ever mention this
Yes ! Agree 100%. I’ve watched 8 of your videos now and have been impressed by your clear and in depth analysis and presentation.
Your tips seem to always end up being pretty magical for me. Thank you so much for your incredible insights!
Thanks I'm so pleased your enjoying the channel
Roger has always been the poster child for this "looking behind the strings upon contact" position. Great video sir.
It's great that your enjoying the site.

Thank you for this brilliant video: so clear and easy to understand. I cannot wait to try and implement this in my next tennis session! I'll let you know how it went. I have to say all of the five videos I have watched from you so far way surpass any other tennis coach videos in terms of what I understand, learn and believe I can implement. This is exceptionally good content. Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words.
It's great to think that this channel is helping so many people improve

I tried hitting the ball further in front today (1 Nov 2021). It worked really well. I had loads more control of the ball. Incredible tip. Thanks.
Awesome feedback.

You are a very professional coach. Excellent tip always.
Fantastic tip, probably the most important and overlooked single concept in tennis instruction. Cannot wait to try it out now, I expect it will work like a charm. For anyone who has struggled going in and out of this contact point/range and have looked for one stable datum to take the mystery out of it, seems here you have found it and communicated it beautifully. Thanks.
Thanks for the encouraging words.
I love that our videos are helping so many players

This is so true, when I concentrate hard on hitting the ball and when I see through the string the shot is of the highest quality. Great lesson!
It's great that your enjoying the site.

I love this .. I'll try this in my coaching this week
You did it again! I liked the explanation of the rotation: elbow vs. shoulder. For some reason I never understood the previous zillion explanations of extension and follow thru... only today I got it - the rotation is the function of the distance to the contact point. Maybe I'm weird, but finally it became logical for me.
What does it mean “rotation is the function of the distance to the contact point”? That sounds to be very complicated. Sorry…English is not my mothers tongue. Thank you already for your repeating of the explanation.
What a great and simple explanation
That's why it's great to have coaching no matter how good you are. I've played tennis for decades and had never thought about the idea of "seeing the ball through the strings" as a guide for proper contact. Many thanks.

awesome tip, can't wait to try see the ball through the strings. This is exactly the problem I have been noticing lately on my forehand that I am making that roll from the elbow, and got frustrated why I can't make a follow through with a straight arm. I thought that I am hitting the ball in front, but this video makes it obvious, that I need to make it even more in front. Keep it up with the good work coach!

I am thankful for this nugget on the objective for Mr. Federer's head remaining fixed .
I understand the objective for producing consistent strikes. But what stance allows easier execution of seeing ball through strings?

Great tips as usual ....
A better technique I've found is to always try to hit the ball from underneath it. So as it's heading toward you, try to hit while you're beneath it, not beside it where you're late.
Fantastic tips with such insight. I am always getting too close to the ball and will try this tip. Great channel. Thank you and keep them up!
Thanks for the kind words. It is great that these videos are helping tennis players all over the world
on the forehand you can pretend your non hitting arm has baseball glove on and you're trying to position in a way that lets you catch the ball without having to reach out.
Only fitting the final clue to the next gen forehand would be right under my nose. You won't have to tie my shoelaces Stephen I promise. Excellent tip TBH the nagging doubt for my contact point was destroying my confidence to use it more often. Trying this new forehand it went off like a firecracker. My opponent was as gobsmacked as I was. Excellent instruction thank you very much👍
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm glad your enjoying the channel
@@oneminutetennis you must have been coaching a long time. Uncanny how you home in on the crux of the matter. I did have difficulty with the dance mauever to drop the racket. Sure enough up pops another method in case I got stuck! CrackerJack instruction you solve age-old technique mysteries with aplomb. Keep up the excellent tutilage Coach 🙂👍🇨🇦
Great video as usual.
Thanks for the support.
It's great to think that we are truly helping people enjoy and improve in this beautiful game
Hello, this method of watching the ball should also improve how to see were your foot work sets up. Also you my need to keep you head down longer. Thanks
Thank you. I also wanted to know where to hit to the target please,
Superb stuff ❤️🙏👍
Great advice! I must try this with my forehand!
good stuff
Brilliant. Thank you
Another great video Steve. Your explanation of these topics and tips are top notch. You literally discuss topics and methods that no one ever explains. Keep up the great work.
Exactly! NOBODY else talks about any of these topics. My mind is blown.
Thank you. You are genius

I've been struggling with contact point for months, having contact behind further back can be easier to hit and time and good as a defensive shot, but most of the time out in front is best. My struggle is either my forehand will work great OR my backhand. I'll have a few good weeks where forehand makes sense, then a few weeks where backhand makes sense. Maybe this tip will solve that problem for me? What else might cause that? Thanks a lot for all your videos, they are among the best on YT, lots of them are in my favourite videos list.
Hi. I have some suggestions for this. Can I ask, do you play with a one or two handed backhand and what Forehand grip do you use please? It's great that your enjoying the site.

This is great. Where are you based please?
I tried this method and it worked really well for hitting crosscourt. If I want to go down the line, contact point needs to be a bit later to my opinion. Is there any similar method for longline shots?
Great tip!! thanks!!

amazing points and highly underrated

www.oneminutetennis.com
I've always use that for the 'volleys' but never for the 'groundstrokes', that was usually done looking from the front as the ball contact the racquet. I guess this was the case for me cause my contact point wasn't way out in front so it was harder to see from behind the racquet strings
Good instruction always. Where do you live? Looks nice. Is it Spain?
I travel a lot. This video was shot in northern Italy. A beautiful area.
Danke!
New subscriber who is really appreciating your videos. I'm teaching tennis to my teenage daughter, who is a true beginner who consistently has a decent stroke, but sprays the ball all over. This video made me think that focusing on the contact point can help make aim more consistent because the direction of the racket face should be more consistent. It might also help with deep balls - instead of running backwards until the ball rises and then falls into her comfort zone, she should focus on the contact point and adjust the height of her swing path accordingly. And maybe that can lead to a lesson on hitting the ball on the rise. Your thoughts?
Hi.

Hi, I agree that Federer has his elbow stretched when he touches the ball in forehand. However, the contact point is not as far forward as it seems to be. Is it more on a side. So, there is no a correlation between full stretched arm and contact point far front. It mainly because of his dominant eye which left that effects his technique. Overall I agree that it must be front and that we can watch the ball from behind the strings. See ya
Hi. Thanks for the interesting and informed comment.
I will have a look at how far in front the contact point is.
Thanks once again and hope that your enjoying the channel

Super! I'll try next weekend. But still I'm wondering if it's possible for me.. I mean see the ball through the threads.
No. It's impossible for you...
But also impossible for everyone.

In trying to see the ball through the strings, you achieve so many great things

@@oneminutetennis-Sure will do
I have so many questions. Before sending my stroke for review I want to have it clear out of bugs. That is why I am being pick with all respect.
1 - I have an extend arm forehand stroke. If I am making contact in front like you said, any mistake and I will not be able to square que racquet face on contact or hit a week shot. Also making contact earlier I can change the racquet angle and change direction and the other side can´t ready it.
2 - I have seen many college and new players on the tour making contact in line with the body, I tried that and it seems that you get a whiplash effect and more power. Does this stand as true?
3 - The ball comes as a parabola, do I hit the ball on the rise, close to the highest point, just start decent or let it drop some inches?
4 - Do I finish above the shoulder, or on the side, I have seen players doing different things? I guess this affects the shot.
5 - I notice that some player hit the ball not 90 degrees to the floor but like 100/105 degrees, is that a a illusion due to the number of frame on the movie or is it real.
6 - I see that some players hit in the bottom half of the racquet ( Assuming the racquet is parallels to the floor - forehand), some in the middle and some close to the tip of racquet. What is the perfect contact point?
Is all the above related to the previous video about fundamentals, meaning it is just style and not that important?
Hi..
Thanks for a lot of great questions.
Most of what you ask come under a similar answer.
A lot of tennis is situational....
If I'm inside the court and attacking, then I'll try to hit the ball high, often at the top of the bounce.
For regular groundstrokes waist height and on the way down is easier.
The finish of the strokes are dictated by this.
A waist height groundstroke usually ends back at waist height.
A head height groundstroke usually ends much higher.
The straight arm Forehand is biomechanically stronger... If you were to push something that is heavy, it's easier with the arms straight.
But there is a tiny bit less margin for error with this straight arm.
I hope this answers some of your questions.
If you need specific help with these matters, have you considered our $49 per month membership.
With this we do biomechanical break down of your stroke and weekly one to one sessions..
I'm more than happy to help here, but I can't share all the information i would like to in this format.
Kind regards and thanks for supporting the channel
How can you time it correctly ..meaning, starting the take back and actual swing in order to see ball through strings?
Just Amazing
It's great that your enjoying the site.
www.oneminutetennis.com
Do these rules apply to high forehands contact point from the baseline? Thank you
Not really.. The contact point on the high ball is further out to the right of the body.
And so this piece of advice is not quite as good.
I'll make another video on this subject shortly
gold
Do the different grips affect your Advice ? Eastern vs Semi Western etc. thank you very much
No. Not at all.
Federer is Eastern and Nadal almost Western. But their contact points are very similar.
Glad your enjoying the channel
Please let me know how it goes?
www.oneminutetennis.com
As ever. Awesome
I'm sorry but I didn't fully understand what you mean by seeing the ball thru the string. Could you please elaborate it? Thanks.
great video
Thank you for the nice comments..I love to know that this work is helping players improve and enjoy this great game
A quick comment. Your videos always have an odd color saturation. Are you using a really old camera or is there a bug in your software?
Funny, I thought same. Glad you mentioned. In the era of 4k resolution, focus does appear rather underwhelming. Instruction more than makes up for it though.
Yes. I need to change the settings. I'll check it out.
I actually know nothing about the technical side of this. So please bear with me.
But I'll try and correct it
I think that's the missing point of the puzzle for my forehand. I'd like to come again to Garda lake for a tennis clinic session;-)
Hi. Great your enjoying our sessions
I will post another concept tomorrow on the arm movement during the serve.
I think maybe very useful for you.
Thanks for the support
I’ve tendency hitting the ball too out front, especially on my forehand. Any tips on that?
It's unusual. But your in good company. That sometimes happens to Serena Williams.
She practices two handed Forehand strokes to bring the contact back into place
Then goes back to a traditional forehand
One Minute Tennis Coach thanks for the tip. How do you know she practices that for hitting out too front? 👍🙏🎾. I can’t wait to try it.
@@bournejason66
I read about it and then saw it a couple of times.
Way back when she lost to sharapova in the Wimbledon final. She even hit a couple of two handed forehands in that match.
Good luck
Can we apply this on the serve also
It really depends on what serve you are hitting.
So... Not really.
Glad your enjoying the channel.
Do you have any other tennis issues that I could help with? If so let me know
www.oneminutetennis.com
What is the recommended grip for the style of play you are sharing?
I only recommend safe grips..
As long as the wrist is behind the ball at contact the grip is correct.
To be clear. If a coach had told Nadal he had to play in an Eastern grip, would be have become Nadal?
f a coach had told Federer he had to play in an Western grip, would be have become Federer?
We have to allow room for personality, expression and style when coaching.
I hope that makes sense
@@oneminutetennis great response, thank you.
the idea is good but in reality we cant see the ball because its going to fast, to have an idea where to hit the ball being able seeing it through the strings is a good indication
Your right. The eyes processes data at about 13milliseconds per second. Which is fast, but still too slow to see this.
But as I said in the session.
"You cannot actually see the contact, but in trying to see the contact through the strings, you gain many advantages"
Do you see what I mean? Http://www.oneminutetennis.com
What if you make contact too far in front sometimes?
That's a good question.
It's unusual, but does happen.
If that's happening to you, then practice a few two handed Forehand strokes.
It'll feel horrible, but instantly brings contact point back into range.
Let me know how it goes
www.oneminutetennis.com
I tried this and couldn't do it. The ball was coming in so fast I couldn't see it through the strings of the racket.
WoW.
