Tweener and buggy whip?

[SeekHeart]

Any tips on learning how to hit a tweener and or buggy whip?

Not good things to learn. They'll come sooner or later.

The latter is actually a really good thing to have. a Buggy-whipshot aka reverse forehand is extremely important when you are at run and you need to find a good crosscourt angle to pass your opponent. Another good thing I have noticed about the buggy-whip shot is that its a good way to hit a rising ball on courts such as clay. I wouldn't recommend using this shot excessively though because it puts a bit burden to your arm. To learn this shot just practise hitting balls by following through behind your right shoulder if you are a righty. Experiment and see if this is a shot you'd like to learn.

Bugs are swung fast and lead with the frame, so low margin for error. Plus, you're running and charging forwards, so it's liable to get mishit. Practice loose wrist and short violent upwards swing.
I find a controlled DEEP underspin a more effective shot, generally DTL.
Also for the tweeners.
Remember, you can drop angle, DTL, go deep DTL, deep crosscourt (not usually recommended), or right at the backcourt person.....

on the tweener, what's the grip and where/when is contact made?

Be careful on the tweener. I have seen a few players hit themselves in a spot you dont want your racket to hit.

Good point and is why I wouldn't recommend trying a buggy whip tweener.

I used to always conti grip push deep a tweener shot DTL.
Then saw a newspaper article about JuanCarlosFerrero's buggy whip "approach" shot crosscourt.
Looked cool, did it some, and went back to the conti grip DTL push.....
Heavy, topped, oval ball whistling CC shot is fun, but can be a big loser if the opponent gets to ball and angles it back where you hit it from.... or DTL.... or CC lob.... or......
