Having trouble controlling the direction of the ball when hitting with forehand

[Walalang]

I seem to have trouble to hit the ball in the direction i want when doing forehand. I cannot control where it really goes, whether straight or diagonal. Most of them just go middle or left side of the table but i have trouble hitting straight and diagonal to the right side of the table. Any tips?

if you would post a video it might be easier to give tips

I reckon 10 minutes on YouTube will find you many coaches with video examples of how to work on and improve basic FH. Video will show you much better than anyone can explain it in here. And at least on YouTube you can watch actual coaches and know they are worth listening too, which most of us in here are not when it comes to questions like this!!

there are quite a number of possibilities, so without video, it is difficult to pinpoint your problem.

Direction of the ball is always the same direction like the blade does the follow though.
