Forehand fails? Backhand wins!
When the ball jams your torso, the forehand loses the space it needs to work — the backhand is built to hit close to the body. Default to BH on body balls: compact, extend through with arm/shoulder (think “flex”), and stop forcing jammed forehands.
Action items
- On balls into the body, choose BH first
- Drill torso jams with a compact BH punch/block
- Save FH for balls with clear space off the hip
