For me, I'm guessing i have a weak foundation. My strokes are not perfect form.
Here's one example:
My FH stroke when warming up. I don't have a specific drop point. It's generally on the FH side, but varies as my stroke is not quite the same. Perhaps I didn't do enough multiball when I was really learning the game. Then compound that with 32 yrs break. Currently I don't have any chance to multiball in my current club. I need to make time to go to my friend 42andbackpains club and train with him and multiball, etc.
Now back to my drop point and it not being the same exact spot like a robot... there are 2 types of players I've hit with. Many higher level players that I've hit with hate the random drop point of my FH (heck, my RPB too). Then there are players like one of TTD's mods, Carl. He thinks the randomness of my shots helps his overall game.
Anyway, i credit that to lack of super official lessons/training/drilling/multiball. Which I also believe is why if I don't hit in 3 days or so, I lose 70% of my strokes/timing/feel/touch/etc.

PUSHING QUESTION FOR RPBers
Do you push with your FH side of the racket or do you push with your RPB side?
I had an OK pushing game with my TPB grip so I pushed with the FH side.
I have been experimenting with a few grips in trying to facilitate my RPB. I have settled on a grip a few months ago, which was extended fingers and spread out. I kept getting hit on my fingers. I have now curled my fingers like my TPB grip a little. I can do RPB shots.
What I cannot seem to do is push now! At least when i use my FH side to push. I have started trying to push with my RPB side. Feels and looks awkward but is better somewhat.
Just curious if other RPBers push with their RPB side?
