Featured Article:
In the game of tennis, there are eight basic shots:
- Serve
- Forehand
- Backhand
- Volley
- Half volley
- Overhead smash
- Drop shot
- Lob
Each of these shots is made by using a racquet to strike the ball with the intent to hit the ball over the net. Therefore, tennis shots are named when they are struck, or because of how they are struck.
A serve shot is undertaken to begin the point. The overhead serve is the most common serve. When undertaking this shot, the ball is tossed into the air over the server's head. The server stretches out their arm completely and hits the ball into the opposite service box in a diagonal direction without allowing the ball to touch the net. A flat, a top-spin, an American twist, or a slice, are some of the different serves that can be used. A serve can sometimes be severely sliced, which is referred to as the sidespin. The serve is used by many players in order to initiate the point, whilst some players attempt to hit a winning shot with their serve. A winning serve that is not touched by the opponent is referred to as an ace.
The forehand is a shot that can be used in other racquet sports such as table tennis, squash, and badminton. This shot is achieved by swinging the racquet across the body in the direction of where the player requires the ball to land. A right-handed player using the forehand shot would begin on the right side of the body and continue across the body as contact is made with the ball, and finish on the left side of the body. The forehand is the easiest shot to master in tennis, as it is the most natural stroke. Both beginners and advanced players generally have a better forehand than any other shot.
Most forehands are hit with topspin as this helps to keep the ball from landing outside the court. If a player is undertaking an approach shot, they can opt to hit the ball with backspin, which is also referred to as a slice.
The main strategy for players is to build on their forehand shots. A point is set up until they have a good chance of striking a powerful forehand in order to win the point.
The backhand is struck from the non-dominant side of the body. This is done by bringing the racquet across the body and swinging the racquet away from the body in the direction of where the player wants the ball to go. This shot is generally considered more difficult to master than the forehand.
A volley is a shot that is hit before the ball touches the ground. A player generally hits a volley whilst standing close to the net. However, there are instances where the ball is executed further back, such as in the middle of the court, or close to the baseline.
The volley is used as an offensive weapon, cutting the opponent's reaction time. A player can also eliminate any opportunity of a bad bounce from an uneven surface as is sometimes seen on grass and clay courts. It is important that a player has quick reflexes in order to make this shot, which requires good hand and eye coordination.
The lob is used either as an offensive or defensive weapon. The ball is hit high and deep into the opponent's court to either enable the lobber to get into a better defensive position or to win the point outright by hitting it over the opponent's head. If the lob is not deep enough, the opponent can return the ball with an overhead smash, which is a hard, serve-like shot. If an opponent is deep in his court, a player can employ an unexpected drop shot, which is delivered by softly tapping the ball just over the net so that the opponent is unable to run in fast enough to return the shot. On the other hand, a defensive lob is carried out in order to push the opponent back to the baseline and prolong the point. When a player is pulled out of court, a defensive lob is useful in order to buy time to run back and get into a better defensive position. There are tennis players renowned for their excellent lob shots such as Chris Evert, Lleyton Hewitt, Andre Agassi, Martina Hingis, and Jelena Jankovic, just to name a few.

Putting Together a Golf Vacation
"What If You Could... Have the perfect group golf vacation, save money and have a sensational time setting it up?" Instead of buying "the package", design your own optimum, personalized vacation.
Remember last year?
You waited all year to get together with your friends for your annual golf vacation. It was supposed to be perfect, but you bought "the package" and your outing turned out to be simply adequate. You all had such high hopes, but you had to take what the package provided.
Sound familiar? Have you been on the receiving side of a less than perfect golf vacation? In all fairness, most golf packages are good. Some are great. But they truly are packages designed for the mass market with little flexibility and no individual flair.
A standard golf vacation package provides lodging and one round of golf per day, including a cart. The lodging usually means motel or hotel accommodations with two people per bedroom. In most cases, you can choose from several different courses, and select your advance tee times. They will even throw in a continental breakfast. The prices are fair, but varying from the standard package starts adding cost in a hurry.
Again, "the package" will yield a good to great vacation, but we need to discuss the perfect vacation. Envision this:
-A beautiful vacation house with a separate bed or bedroom for each person.
-Gourmet dining each evening.
-As much or as little golf as you want, where you want and when you want.
-Evening entertainment.
-Maximum camaraderie.
I have been setting up this type of annual golf vacation for my old high school and college friends since 1988. Over those 18 years, we have refined Our Event to what we think is the perfect annual outing. Our first few years were terrific even though we had to keep the costs down. Each new year improves on the last.
We have settled on a full seven days, Saturday to Saturday. In general, we schedule 36 holes per day, and modify that day by day to wind up with an average of about 27 holes per day. Our smallest group was five gents one year, and the largest group was sixteen. The perfect group size is eight, but anywhere from six to twelve works great.
We buy most of the food and beverages the day of arrival to support breakfasts, snacks, sandwiches between rounds, and gourmet evening meals for the entire week.
Your perfect group golf vacation is not going to be identical to ours, but the general organization will be. There is going to have to be a "go to guy" that organizes the event. My guess is that will be you. You will need to:
- Get the ball rolling early.
- Have everyone stay in the same house that has a full kitchen.
- Get the shopping list together ahead of time.
- Have a general schedule and loose assignments.
1. Get the ball rolling. Pick out a window of time and get the word out to everyone you think might be interested AND not interested (next year, they may be). I send a fun, whimsical email about five months ahead of a proposed block of time. It is written such that the wives enjoy the comedy as much as the guys. If you are not a writer, there are examples in my upcoming free Ebook. Additionally, this book will take you through setting up and conducting the whole event from scratch.
Follow up emails get commitments and solicit recommendations and special requests. Armed with all this, you will select the ideal house, set up tee times, and arrange rental vehicles. Further emails from you will ask what food, snacks and beverages they will want for the outing. Here is a good time line:
-5 months: Announce.
-3 months: Receive all commitments and solicited recommendations.
-3 months: Let everyone know when to fly in to coordinate travel.
-2 months: Arrange house, tee times and rental cars.
-1 month: Receive all food, snack, and beverage requests.
-1 month: Confirm house, tee times and rental cars.
-1 week: Finalize food and beverage list.
Zero hour: Have the time of your life.
2. House with a full kitchen. This allows several things:
- Preparing your own evening meal. Every group has at least one "chef".
- Rehashing the day as a group (yes, this includes an appropriate amount of trash talk and begging for strokes on upcoming rounds.)
- Having evening entertainment as a group. We watch a sports event on TV, watch videos, play cards, tell tales and get caught up, or all of the above.
- Getting sandwiches, snacks and beverages ready for the next day.
3. Shopping List. In my free Ebook I provide a sample shopping list and sample emails to send requesting input. Your various emails to the group should provide a "fill in the blank" type of requested reply. This year I am going to use a free web site that allows one to build a form (entirely free). More on that in my third article in this series. You will ask what they want for breakfast, what they want for sandwich lunch, what they want to drink for the week, and any snacks they like.
4. General Schedule and Assignments. Your first year will be a terrific learning experience. Your "chef" will emerge and others will gravitate to where they are needed. Putting together a list of what needs to be done and having volunteers will work just fine. Over the years, you will find what works best.
Think about bringing a laptop and uploading each day's results on your website so that the unfortunate people that did not make the trip can live vicariously by following the daily action. If you don't have a website, a free blog will work about as well and will be much easier to update. An idea that our group has not yet acted on is having a masseuse come in one evening later in the week to help our aging muscles.
You will have almost as much fun setting up this event as you will have during your vacation. I set up a little eight page website with history, photos, schedule, past scores, etc. to hold everyone's interest and attention throughout the year. An example is in my free Ebook.
Building your own special vacation not only allows you to really tailor your outing to your group's tastes, but also allows you all to get together as a true group for a great week of camaraderie. As a bonus, it should wind up being less expensive! Once you set your own up, I doubt you will ever buy "the package" again.
