However, Donald Trump and I do advocate name-calling. It is what we have in common. Or should I say names-calling since you have several for me just as I have several for you. Although mine for you are more just. Well, reader here-- if there is a reader-- can decide.Last edited by bottle; 12-10-2016, 11:22 AM.

Report on Serve Experiment
To restate it, hand goes down just once, on outside of racket butt, vs. going down on inside of racket butt (closer to body). Going down to outside greatly helped me to understand the other. Speed for both serves was about the same. Consistency was greater, however, when using hand closer to the body version.
Paul Metzler of Australia is a tennis writer intellectual enough to compare serves in which palm stays down vs. turns out.
Me, I may do both on occasion-- for fun-- but probably will turn wrist out from now on so long as I stay within the same service innovation program.
An unexpected advantage is that upward runway can become as long as it was when this server used to clench both halves of arm together.
One can simply keep elbow against body as racket tip topples over and shoulder goes down while other shoulder tosses the ball.
Whole arm can then rise like a double-jointed fire truck ladder only coiling at the same time!
The feel of this is "coming at bottom of ball." And to the outside. Followed by hi-5 on back of ball, combined push on inside of ball and turn with scarecrow arm to finish.
I recommend all TennisOne videos of Doug King (free to TennisPlayer subscribers). He lays out a bunch of serving principles which I find less restrictive and more conducive to innovation than those of any other teaching pro I have encountered in my life.Last edited by bottle; 12-12-2016, 06:46 AM.
