another classic...
coaching my boys in a doubles match after my number one seeded boys were down 1-4 to some no names at the State Qualifying...
"If you don't get your HEAD out of your ___, you will be running so much, you'll think you're on the crosscountry team. Get in there and kill it, kill the ball, kill something."
They won the next 11 games.

That's a great one Steve! I see it on the forehand side too. I've been hitting with more of a 3/4 open stance lately, but could still use some opening up on the BH.

Try to hit the baseline. (Forces you to hit higher over the net)

Try to hit the bottom of the ball. (Makes you focus as well as hit with a lot of topspin. Just make sure your racket face is closed.)
