I have not idea what happened this pass week. there are many people was asking me whether they can use one of my glove.

I have 8 glove to switch during the game, and most of the glove are used and have my sweat on them.

I just joke with them that I don't clean my hand after using the restroom so... that is why.

Do you guy let other borrow your glove? I mean a used one.

Wow this week meet a new buddy who has the same game as I. He serve the same way I did ... moving the ball (control) + pinch shot !! (same shot selection).

I never think it is so hard to against a person who had the same game plan as I am.

Does anyone have same experiences ... playing with someone play like yourself?

Today I play with a play (my first time playing with him). He hit the ball DTL back to himself, I did not expect that. Does anyone use this shot? I watch Jason - he did hit the ball back to himself and his opponent did not expect that to happened.

Ok this might be funny:

I play with some play (who never look back), I start to use some splat shot. He turn around and told me I skip the ball ?!? he said that he hear the "skip sound" ... I notice when I hit the side wall (glass wall) it make the "skip sound" ... I really don't know how to tell him that sound is not skip from the floor but the side wall. He look at me like I need to cheat for that point!!

what will you do?

Is score a good indicate that (level of playing + skill) from a player to another?

I found out that some/most of the play was not "strong" as b.hand and f.hand.:

for example I can do pinch and r.pinch with my b.hand but I having hard time to do pinch with f.hand, My f.hand can do WA and Z-shot more consistence than my b.hand.

is it just matter of practice or every play this "more confident" shot selection?

do you think you have same control for b.hand and f.hand?

I notice some player hit every shot as hard as they can, sometime when they are close to the front wall they still hit the ball with "full" speed to do a pinch etc. Some other player who mix the power up, some time hit it hard and some time hit it soft to the front conner.

I try some soft shot or call "drop shot", (is kind of fun) but somehow one of the told me not to do that because if my opponent have a fast feet they will be able to get those shot. so he told me to hit it hard (or so call end rally).

I play squash before I learn about RB, so I kind of have the "mouse and cat" style of playing. I am thinking of changing to more RB style - end the rally type of style.

BTW what kind of style you use (most of the time). Powershot all the way or mix up different power?

Finish watching Fran's Video (again) here are two question/problem I had:

1. the follow through position: In the video it show the racket should end up below shoulder. However when I compare with John Ellis follow through is more above shoulder. which one is "better" or both of the position is correct?
3 months ago I video my game


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOgNXbRB6gM


I look at myself and can not believe I move like sh_t!! hitting the ball every way.
I work on my game more for last two month.


Yesterday I got a chance to video my game again:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTU-oBjSC3o


OMG when I look at the video I'm very depressed. I think I did not Improve at all.

I still move like sh_t, hitting the ball every way. bad serve over and over.
I got kind of discourage after watch myself in the video.

PLs look at both video and compare what is the same mistake that I make and How/What I can do to change it.
