I want you guys advice on whether I should hit a certain shot or not.
I sometimes struggle against serve and volleyers, and people who come to net in general. I have a hard time passing them consistently.
However, recently I have been hitting right at them.
I am not talking about overheads, I am talking about groundstrokes that I hit from inside the baseline.
For example: the server serves and comes in to volley. I return the first shot at their feet. They then pop up their second shot somewhere between the service line and the baseline. I then hit my next shot DIRECTLY at them with a great deal of pace. 90% of the time they are unable to hit the next shot, and sometimes it actually hits them in the body.
Does anybody see anything wrong with this? I feel bad about going right at them, but I can always aim better if I have a target like a person up there. I struggle when I try to hit an open SPOT versus an OPPONENT.
I want you guys honest opinion on whether this is unsportsman like, or is perfectly legitimate.
Thanks!
