This blog post is taken from our 'The Ace' tennis newsletter and is inspired by a lesson I took with our local pro, Dave Rowat. I have a lot of respect for Dave. He's a great player of course but he's a tremendous teacher. Those two things are not always synonymous!

The topic of this article comes from a lesson I had a couple of years ago with the pro I take lessons from.

This article comes from discussion about an adaptation of a strategy that my local club pro and I had regarding how hard I was hitting the ball.

I love the game of tennis. I enjoy watching it, playing it and writing about it! What I find truly amazing is the amount of focus and the amount of skill that is required to play well.

I was out hitting today with our local tennis pro, Dave Rowat and we were working on a few different things and one of the things that came up was the inside out forehand.
