How to Hit More Extreme Angles, More Often.
One day I looked up a drill to work on angles. I found a nice video on Youtube, it had 2 players standing at the net. They were in the opposite doubles allies(so they hit cross court) and close enough to where they could touch the net. They hit a ball over the net to the other player but at an extremely sharp angle and barely over the net, as you would have to to hit from one ally to the opposite ally. I started practicing this drill and it gave me a very large boost in hitting extreme angles, control, and general net play. I also noticed that it helped my mentality in seeing more opportunities for this shot. Remember to tap the ball lightly for the best control, even putting a bit of slice on the ball makes this shot more controlled and deadly. I hope you try it, for it sure helped me. Thankyou, Tom.
