Hey guys
So here is my problem been playing this guy a lot and we are of a smiliar ability with a different style, he likes to soak up pressure then attack with a short ball, I love to be on the front foot attacking with a big forehand and come into net when I can.
He is a right hander with a two handed backhand
I am a left hander with a one hander.
Anyway in the past my weakness was consistency on the one hander but I have really worked on that and checked my grip and I am happy with it and my backhand drive is a solid shot now.
However the problem I am having is I am struggling to hit through the court or keep a great length with this shot, and I eventually drop short which presents him with a short ball.
Of course I try and run around and get to my forehand as much as I can but now he has seen this tendancy to drop short when i play my backhand he targets it.
What can I do to change up this pattern of play? and any tips for me to get some better depth on the one handed backhand?
