First move: Draw hands in and up

approach ball like you are catching it with your forward stroke ...and instead off grasping it ...push it from behind ...(at least that's what this guy says)

try to align the string bed and palm at impact ...feel the force of the impact in the knuckle of your right forefinger (FH)

BS ...the racket is NOT swung back ...it taken back with right elbow leading
FT: add topspin with hand rotation that brings the forearm to the left shoulder ...but you extend the right humerus to the target
