The "Paint bucket serve."
I know this is probably "old hat," but I thought I'd have some fun.
Certainly, especially the way most members of this Forum train and practice, and I'm guessing now, all have done this?
If it's a repeated Thread, you can just ignore it. OK! You can ignore it if it isn't also.
The truth of the matter is, I was inspired by, viewing all these interesting videos of talented players serves.
Here's how this works, with some brief tips.
First of all, there's no secrete to the three serves, all of which require a special "placement" of the ball for each serve. Flat, spin, and the "kicker."
Pick any serve you like, just remember, it's the video of this practice lesson I'd like to see!
A 5 gal. bucket is needed. Home Depot?
The bucket is placed, at the spot on the court, where the ball, when tossed and not hit, would land.
The task is to toss your normal ball, for the desired serve, and see if it lands in the bucket.
Getting this already? Yes, it's fun and great practice.
Obviously you don't hit the ball or the task will be pointless.
Everyone should know where each serve will strike the ground? if not, one or two tosses will tell you.
Place the bucket there and START TOSSING!
Post your video!! So we can see all those tossed balls land in that bucket one after the other.
If you have mastered a great serve, then all the balls should easily land in the bucket.
