My favorite doubles shot is a poach BHV on the return to my partner's serve.
If I hit a soft, pushed volley while trucking well I am fairly accurate, aiming at the net person's feet or right hip. My shot usually doesn't come back, but if the net person is really good, he or she can hit a soft bloop crosscourt to the service line I just vacated. A great partner who goes specifically THERE may be the answer, but I'd rather put the ball away myself since great partners aren't always available. I need better racket work and probably have tried many tricks. I need to hear from anyone who does this well. I'm very interested and would make any technical change. What do you do with your racket to bang the return really hard at the net person's hip?
