Usually when I'm drilling or practicing with friends, I can keep the launch angle relatively low. But once a match begins, when I'm hitting my forehands, I struggle to keep the ball lower to the net. My typical net clearance during a match (doubles or singles) is probably around 5 feet or higher. I just can't seem to get the ball lower over the net.
In singles its not too horrible, as it gets the ball nice and deep. But then if I'm going for a short angle or approach shot, you want to keep the ball low over the net.
In doubles, though, its usually a bad thing. 4 or 5 feet above the net is easy for an astute net guy to put the ball away easily.
It's like I've forgotten how to hit the ball low over the net. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
