This is the best Tip I’ve seen yet for practicing the 3rd shot. Thanks so much for sharing, Steve. I can’t wait to practice now!
What if you don’t have a portable net?
Excellent hints, I wish we had second net
One can do this with just one portable net too. Align it 7′ from a wall, stand back 15′ and do the same thing. Then move it closer for the more accurate practice.
OK, what if the “second shot” is returned to you with POWER and you are at the base line. I find myself on the defensive when I am behind the baseline waiting for the second shot.
Great practice.
Great idea !
