Thanks man! I cant believe that you have fixed my backhand that has been like shit for 2 years. Feel very happy right now cant wait to play tournaments right now
I absolutely loved this video, Grant, Not a two hander but this made me want to be! I’ll wait for the one handed awesome version you will eventually make and let ya know!!! Thanks so much.
10:27 I’d say 10 percent of the time I can really make the ball ‘bite’ my racket and it sends the ball fast with a lot of downward motion into the court. Other times I feel like I’m really pushing the ball. A lot of the 2hbh seems to be timing.
Hi, great video. Can you make a special video on a weight shift, leg drive and hip rotation in two-handed backhand? It is really something where I struggle in my two-handed backhand and there are no specific videos on this topic in youtube. Thanks a lot and all the best in new year
Good vid and examples indeed but one thing that should be explained initially is the grip and positioning of both hands on the racquet to produce the ATP backhand.....without this all of these great tips become void.
Объективно - хорошо! Обрати внимание на постановку левой опорной ноги. Лучше её развернуть до 45°, чтобы избежать нагрузки на коленный сустав. Objectively - good! Pay attention to the position of the left supporting leg. It is better to turn it up to 45 ° to avoid stress on the knee joint.
Great video Grant, I can see my backhand swing feels way better. In your Forehand 5 Mistakes video you demonstrated how to use the Eastern grip. In this great backhand video here I see you gave us a quick view of the left hand on the racquet when you show us the one handed (left) practice drill. But is this grip also an eastern grip? It looks a bit continental for me, and practicing on the court I can't decide whether my left hand should be in a continental grip, or an eastern grip, for the backhand. Any thoughts to help me Grant?
At the point of impact in front of the body, the racquet face is perpendicular and exposes the maximum face area (strings) to the ball. So max power and min chances of mishitting. Is that right coach?
Question for the dominant arm and dominant arm, do both index fingers have a seperation from the 3rd digit or you want your dominant hand fingers to all be bunched together and only the left hand 2nd finger be separated?
Thanks for posting, it reminds me of a cricket batsman's technique to hit over the bowler, only applied to your opposite hand. That would be my own trick to remember your steps
so i tried the grip he showed and there's no way in hell i can extend my finger if i have my other hand on the grip. My left index finger is completely past the grip when my left hand is butt up against my right and the right is all the way at the bottom of the handle...if i put my finger up at all it's going to be on the part where the racquet handle splits.

One handed backhand pleaseeeeeee
Yeah I'm waiting for the 1hbh video

GVH, thanks, great instruction for the Gordon/Macci Backhand.
Of course!!

Thank you so much, from south Korea.

Excellent video . Appreciate very much

Hello Grant I tried your tip on the tennis court on myself and it works very well thanks for your advice and see you soon on your RUclips channel

Great stuff! I just started to tennis and this is very to the point!
Hi Grant! Thanks for this awesome video! Will you provide a single course concerning backhand? (just like the forehand course)
Amazing share thanks
Awesome videos, you are a great teacher. I cannot close the strings on the backhand, what are your grips on each hand? Thank you

Great stuff as always. I’m not sure what you mean about creating the maximum amount of surface area?
How are you doing Jeremy?? Are you coming back to youtube?

The dominant arm's fingers can be clumped together at the bottom - however the non-dominant arm should have that index raised higher!
Does that help?
@@GrantVanderHayden yes thanks so much!
Hello! Should my index finger of my non-dominant hand be on top of my thumb or should the thumb be on top of the index finger?
👏🏼 👏🏼
Keep the great content coming.
Would be nice if you finish each video with a bunch of nice hitting…
Can you copy the agassi or courier backhand in a Video with the swing and flip?
