Until very recently I had been playing with an Eastern/Extreme Eastern grip because I loved being able to drive the ball through the court hitting very flat. However, hitting long was always a risk/issue. My grip has slowly been going SW but I would correct myself because when I hit SW I lose the depth of my shots despite hitting a heavier ball that lands in.
Are the depth issues just simply that I need to increase swing speed and drive harder since there is an increased upward motion on the ball for spin which cheats depth away? Or is the decrease in depth just a result of the new swing technique that I have to live with?
I've also been stringing full poly at 60. Would now be the time to consider a drop of 2-4 lbs. in tension in order to get a little more pop or would this only be a patch job fix to the problem?
