hi. i feel that i should provide some background information before i lead up to my MAIN QUESTION...
alas, tennis season has started.
my game style: aggressive all-courter (can't go to the net much when my opponent lobs and lobs and lobs when i come to the net..), with a SW forehand grip, continental two-handed backhand grip, serves with either heavy kick or driving slice, hits most groundstrokes on closed stance.
at times, i have a bit trouble on staying focused.
the school i play in: phelan, CA at 4000 ft.
but, when coach (my school coach) pits me against other players for a game, i screw up.
i have fixed/improved on the following errors: focusing on the ball (esp. with my K95), focusing on the BALL during the serve, etc...
This is my main question: the major gripe i have is that whenever i try to go for a heavy groundstroke spinner, or even a routine forehand rally, the balls would go out. and i mean, FLY like 10 ft above into out-of bounds.
How do i cure that disease?
i tried to pin down the main cause(s) of hitting routine forehands into flying cupcakes for my opponent. possible causes include:
1.) i am overhitting. (somewhat unlikely possiblity.)
2.) my racquet is strung too light. (my K95, my main racquet, is strung with gosen soft poly-somethin....don't know the model...at 54 lbs.)
3.) the altitude. (~3200ft.)
4.) my technique.
or any others...
thank you for any help!!
(BTW: i DID ask my coach of possibilities of why it happens....he says it's the altitude. i doubt it.)
