I am absolutely depressed about my SW forehand, it is the weakest link of my game. I was playing this pusher yesterday and again my forehand failed me big time. This guy was acting like a jerk and apologized to me everytime I shanked my forehand. Hey pal, I shank my forehand because of me not you!! I got so mad that I changed my forehand completely from SW to continental and started pushing and slicing all my forehands. Well, as you would have guessed by now, I absolutely dominated that guy and shut him up for good.
For my mental health I guess I have to give up my SW forehand and go continental. I won't let any pusher win with a smirk on his face just because he can throw junks to my forehand side. With a continental at least I won't have to worry about shanking my forehand. Believe it or not, the slice forehand with a continental is my most reliable shot and the topspin forehand with a SW is my worst shot.
Anyways, my question is, since I am going to continental for sure, I would like to add more varieties to it. Right now I can slice unbelievably well with the continental forehand but how about topspin or flat? Can I hit topspin with pace using a continental forehand? Should I retun serve with a continental forehand? Any advices would be appreciated.
