    Last night, got to the club 6pm, jammed already. Table opened up, I jumped on. Played 'Si-hing' again, i've always lost matches to him. Modern PH who plays defensively (it could be he is working on his defensive skills away from the table). Played and lost easily. My shoulder was sore. I hate...

    Sir, Please forgive my bad memory... your partner is a PH with LP... is it on his backside or does he use it on his front side? If he uses it on his backside, does he use it as a 'crutch' to compensate for his lack of skill in returning serves/shots to his BH side?

    RE: knowing your strengths/weaknesses I start with a famous quote by Sun Tzu: “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the...

    Since I've been back into TT after the long layoff, i have tried a few rubbers but nothing suited me. When I tried DHS H3, overall my game has gotten back to some semblance of what it was before. PingPongHolic made a passing comment that i was doing too much work with the DHS. 42andbackpains...

    Right shoulder sore ... may have been overdoing TT (3x/wk) and martial arts (2x/wk) - will try TT 2x/wk instead. Last night, got to club late, ~6pm, jammed already. One table had no one next... B1 was hitting with someone who left after 5 mins. B1 started working his serves with me, previous...
  13. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

    Interesting... I don't plan to twiddle any time soon, still trying to get my old game back and be consistent Haven't tried to twiddle or lp chop Will try it next week if I can, dependent on partner, and will report back Could be my stroke or the grip, but I am not that good a practice...
  14. Just curious how many Penholders are on TTD?

This helps me block/punch very well IMO. I've tried to block and punch with the handle in the web of my hand and...

    “I am what I am, and that's all that I am.” ~Popeye Got to the club early after work, ~5:30. Not many people there yet. Borrowed a net from the woman who is sort of like a coach. Played some member I never saw before. We were in the small area where there is a white wall on one side, and a gray...
