But the forehand comes into play in almost every point. Every time that you can get in a good position in the backcourt to belt a forehand, try to do some damage with it. The forehand is far more complex than the backhand. Look at all of the variations in players' styles. These variations are possible simply because the mechanical strength of the human forehand motion allows for lots of variability.
Complexity is both an asset and a liability.
His forehand stroke is about as simple as is humanly possible. If you develop too much variety, however, you have to be able to make quick and correct decisions. Shot selection is crucial to winning matches. I get a kick out of watching a pro shake his head and scream at himself after a particularly dumb shot. If you want to do well in the local club or city tournament, proficiency with a variety of forehand spins and trajectories is especially important.
