Exploiting Your Opponent's Wide Forehand - Table Tennis Tactics

Tuesday March 27, 2007

Today I'm going to highlight a simple but effective tactic which will literally open up new avenues for you to hit winners to your heart's content. And all it requires is the ability to place the ball with a purpose, instead of randomly bashing away. Let's talk about exploiting the wide forehand of your opponent.
