On second though, I do use the drop shot more often than I thought, but it's mostly accidental. Like today; if I hit a completely defensive BH slice, it usually turns into a drop shot (because my BH slice is really, really good)
But anyway, my BH grip is too weird to hit a BH drop shot on purpose. My FH grip allows me to hit perfect drop shots. But for the ones I hit intentially: I honestly don't know. I've always just felt more comfortable hitting over the ball. But today, this was in the back of my mind, and I hit a few FH squash shots, just to change up the rhythm.
As for today; I hit 5 aces and no double faults
And I hit sooooooo many unreturnables. My serve was on fire today (but I was using my other racquet which always lets me go wild on the serve: Wilson BLX)
It was doubles. I was playing a guy that I hadn't seen in a while, and I was just murdering him on the ground. He's kind of a counter puncher (but not really speedy), and after I kept winning the ground shots, I could only help but think, "How in the hell did I ever lose to him?" But I guess I just got a lot better and he....didn't.
Another thing: it's always hilarious when ball bashers come back down to earth. My serve was broken when I was serving for the set at 5-4. To their credit, the were returning my serves really well.
Incredibly well. But for my 2nd serves, one guy was just outright ball bashing, and they all managed to go in. He hit one shot so hard that I couldn't even hit it back over the net. But then he went back to the ball bashing well, but it was all dried up. That one guy smacked so many balls that weren't even close. We break, and serve it out 7-5.
