Tip of the day
This video identifies and corrects the five most common backhand dink mistakes.
It emphasizes avoiding a high-to-low swing, which leads to popped-up dinks.
You'll learn the importance of a straight elbow and shoulder-driven swing.
The video highlights keeping a cocked wrist for control and consistency.
It also covers proper footwork and knee bending for optimal positioning.
For two-handed backhands, it stresses coming up under the ball, not rolling over it.
Key Points:
Avoid High-to-Low: Don't cut the ball, swing straight through.
Straight Elbow Swing: Swing from the shoulder, keep the elbow straight.
Cocked Wrist: Keep the wrist firm and cocked.
Proper Footwork: Get behind the ball with good footwork.
Bend Knees: Get low by bending your knees, not your back.
