Part 2 (Conclusion)

Good balance often begins with proper footwork. Can you picture a good dancer with bad footwork … I think not! When you reach both the top of your backswing, as well as impact, I like my students to be solid on both feet. I feel this enables the players to both load and store energy with maximum efficiency as well as deliver the most solid blow to the ball. Only after impact do you begin to leave your right foot as a result of your hips pivoting through impact into the follow-through condition.
