beating the pusher
I'm a 3.5 and have played some pushers. One thing I notice at the 3.5 level is a lot of the backhands are weak. So hit it to their backhand-side (using that control-oriented Prestige) and approach the net--I like being a step or two inside the service box. Keep on doing this and it forces them to lob effectively or hit a passing shot--which many pushers cannot do effectively.
