For 10-12 years I played with a flat forehand until I realized I need to stop and just make a full time switch to a semi-western grip.
Well it's been about 1 month and granted I have only been playing like once a week....but it still feel so uncomfortable and when I have been playing matches a large majority of the time I am making unforced errors due to just hitting the ball into the net. Funny because my main problem when I hit flat was way overhitting...now I have the opposite problem.
Other than imagining a higher clearance way over the net...is there any good suggestions? I have tried doing this in matches and I am still having the issue. My opponent today said it doesn't seem like I am swinging fast enough and maybe not as much low to high.
Just want to really fix this issue. Any tips/suggestions would be helpful. It still feel so awkward hitting with this grip and I have no confidence in my shots at all.
