I was wondering if I should slightly change the place where I plant my right foot during the serve according to where I want it to go. E.g., from ad side, a bit back for a serve out wide, a bit more forward for a serve down the T, and similarly from deuce side. Does this affect the amount of shoulder rotation I get?
I'm asking this because occasionally I have trouble directing my serve properly, especially for the flat serve. When I hit too much to my left (e.g. serve from deuce side goes into the body instead of down the T) I'm pretty sure I opened my shoulders too early. When I hit to the body on ad side, instead of down the T, I just don't know. Is this issue connected to where I plant my right foot?
Any thoughts appreciated!
