    In this in-depth analysis, I break down the deep forehand off the back wall by comparing the techniques of both myself and one of my students. While there are many similarities, diving deeper reveals subtle differences that can significantly impact the shot's effectiveness and consistency.
    🎯 Main Takeaways from a Coaching Perspective:
    🦶 Footwork Fundamentals: Proper footwork is essential. The "left-right" combination is highlighted, emphasising the importance of a stable base. Differences in footwork can affect the exit movement after the shot.
    🔄 Swing Mechanics: The video introduces the "one-two-three" part of the swing. This systematic approach ensures a consistent and effective shot. The importance of the racket's angle and position during the swing is also discussed.
    📐 Racket Angle: A closer look reveals differences in the racket's angle during the setup. A 45-degree angle is recommended for optimal results.
    👁 Contact Point: The point of contact with the ball is crucial. Making contact slightly ahead and in line with the front foot can lead to a more effective shot, while a late contact, towards the back foot, might require a compensatory wrist movement.
    🚀 Follow Through: The direction of the follow-through can dictate the ball's trajectory. An upward and straight follow-through is preferred over one that wraps under the arm.
    🌟 Consistency is Key: The ultimate goal is to achieve a shot that consistently travels up and down the sidewall without clipping.
    🔍 Granular Observations: The video emphasises the importance of small, granular adjustments. Even minor changes in footwork, racket angle, or swing mechanics can lead to significant improvements in shot quality.

    Thanks for the breakdown of the swing, the differences seem so subtle, but the results speak for themselves.

      Thanks! I love doing these and yes the goal is to create consistent hitting so the players don’t really need to think and can trust is their mechanics

    Love your analysis. I would love it you either started your analysis or ended it, with the entire swing, contact, ball hitting the front wall and seeing where it bounces. Full spectrum of the swing and effect.

    Really enjoyed this 1:1 coaching session, Jesse 🤩 So good insight and easy to understand your tips and input. The way you explain and demonstrates the correct parameters of the shot, reinforced by the video analysis with live comparisons of our movement using annotations and split screen video make it much easier to understand what to change during and after the session 👏

      An honour to have such a good student of the game to coach! A few more videos on the way soon to digest and learn from. Thank you for allowing the sharing also. Very open minded and this is where growth really happens 👏🏼👏🏼

    Where is the contact point in this situation is it middle of stance? Or just inside back foot? This would be ideal to know

    In a game you'd probably take it a bit earlier to create more depth this shot is a bit short putting you in a vulnerable position

      Sure, I think so. Was more of a technical deep dive but your point is valid

    Thanks Jesse amazing video. Definitely guilty of slipping into bad habits like follow through under the left arm.

      Yeah not an easy one on the forehand and needs to be a conscious effort for quite a while until it becomes subconscious. Are you interested in getting your free swing audit?
