A tennis instructor once suggested that the butt cap should be pulled forward when starting the forward motion to initiate a forehand. This is very helpful and is very evident in the videos!

Forehand tip…forehand butt

I like to get them set up in the "Pancho Gonzalez" two handed grip to help the student engage their whole body in this pulling action. For a right hander this means to put two fingers and the thumb from the left hand on the bottom of the grip. In this manner you enable the student to engage the whole body from the feet to the shoulders and finally the arms in this pulling action.don_budge

Viewed another way, if upon first forward motion some other part of the racquet coming forward, then either the instructor has left out something important, or the student is in love and no lessons will help.Last edited by curiosity; 01-28-2016, 09:52 PM.
