First let me say i'm a self rated beginner
I feel like my groundstrokes are developing much faster than my service game (which I have none and double fault a lot).
I was taking lessons and my coach gave me the gist of how to do the flat serve, but I would always struggle during lessons and he would give me homework assignments to practice on it.
I've been practicing for the past 3 weeks (about twice a week) with 3 hoppers of balls on serves and came to a few conclustions...
A strange thing for me is I feel like my topspin serve is actually alot better than my flat serve (gets in the service box more with some pace), but I cannot hit a flat serve for the life of me. But even that is like a 50% success rate
I sometimes try to alternate, flat and topspin, serves during my solo practice, but I'm not sure if it's effective.
Common issue I have with flat serve is framing the ball.
Any insight on what I should focus on? Should I try to "perfect" my 2nd serve before working on the 1st serve?
