[Thumb and index finger.] Don't grip it with your middle ring finger, grip it with your thumb and index finger and move it like this. ✅ You're gripping with your middle and ring fingers. ❌ You're not gripping it with your thumb and index finger, you're gripping it with your middle and ring finger. ❌ What if you hold it like this? ✅ (Thumb and index finger gripping a pencil…) You have to hold it like this. Q. Is the thumb and index finger the point and not the middle and ring finger? How am I supposed to swing if I grip it like this? The racket doesn't move. What about this? (Move your grip into the loose space of your palm.) (You don't need to completely release your middle, ring, and pinky fingers from your grip.) Okay. relax. Grab it. okay. Take it easy. Grab it. grab it lightly. Just the racket. Grab it. You don't have to lift it up, you have to grab it from above. Relax and grip. Relax. When the shuttlecock comes, grip it.
Take off your strength. Take off your strength. Wait for the release and hit it. You only have to grab the grip before the shuttlecock hits. Then it gets easier. You should not be pushing yourself to be ready. Don't push it. Touch it lightly. You don't know why you're doing this, right? Where are you looking? over there?… why are you looking over there? Why are you looking there? uh? (Anyway, the shuttlecock only comes close the net.) [Within sight…] The shuttlecock comes over the net. You should look at it like this while sitting on the shuttlecock. You need to get the shuttlecock up from under the net. (If you lower your eye level, you can see the entire path of the shuttlecock. ✅) (Your gaze should follow the shuttlecock as it moves out of view. ❌) Should your stance be high or low? But why are you standing up? [Difficult location…?] The shuttle is coming toward your right shoulder, how should you hit it? But why lift it? Where is your racket? I need my racket to be in my line of sight so I can hit it correctly. You need to know where the racket is so you can hit it.
Amateurs need to see their rackets in person to know where they are. Isn't it? You need to know the position of your racket to determine which swing to take. (but, you Put down your racket as soon as your opponent hits..) Your opponent hits, but your racket is already down. You have to think about hitting from eye level. Q. His rackethead angle doesn't look like it can go over the net 😀 ? (Leaned forward.) [About the thumb…] Your thumb… If you push your thumb too fast, the racket face angle will flip forward. If you hit it like this, where will the shuttlecock go? Then you should hit it like this. (The angle at which the shuttlecock can cross the net). Imagine a racket face. You want to hit it like this. (This is you…) Q. How do you do underclearing? (Lift) (Swings like drives and cuts. Only adjust the racket face angle).
Is that right? The drive is hit at this angle. Same swing, undercut at a different angle (lift or lob). I think this limits my range of motion, so I don't get very far. (we hate words that are difficult…😨) Range of motion…? ❌ This is not it. ✅ This is it. (Don't use your full thumb to rest your finger on.) Obviously, there's no range of motion. Is that right? If you put your full thumb on it, it has no range of motion.
(We hate the word range of motion. 🤮) How did I use my thumb? Holding your thumb to the side. I put my thumb to the side. You hold it like this and swing it. No range of motion? Use your full thumb. there is? doesn't exist? The range of motion you're talking about is the takeback space. If you hold your grip like this, what's your range of motion? full thumb grip. Move your thumb to the side. Put down your racket. Just pull it back. swing. Do you have range of motion? doesn't exist? You are doing it like this.❌ One.
Two. one. two. Go like this. (Can you see the racket rotating as it moves forward? 🥲) Give it a thumbs up. The racket cannot extend forward. ❌ When you hit a shuttlecock in front of your face, use your full thumb to support your grip. You can't hit it unless it's in front of your face.
The angle doesn't work. When I rest my full thumb, I can't lift because I have no range of motion. this is possible only. It is possible to hit like this when you have no choice. But this doesn't work. Come here. ( Net-play with your full thumb supporting the grip.) Do you have a range of motion? doesn't exist? ❌ Then it’s the same in this location.
(Hold your thumb to the side) Just drop the racket. (This is how you should hold your grip to move the racket forward). If you flip it down, it's underclear. (Lift.) release racket. Just release. What are you gonna hold the racket with then? Think quickly. Thumb and index finger. ✅ Then hold it with your thumb and index finger. ✅ Yes. Don't try to take your thumb or index finger off the grip. I mean… look. Did I put my racket back? My racket is still there. You hit it as the racket moves forward.
Your arm shouldn't move like this. [Angle.] Q. Is this how you do it when you cut? I grip it like this. The rackethead hits like this. If you push with your thumb and the racket turns, where will the shuttlecock go… The under clear goes up like this. like this. The shuttlecock should hit here. put with Thumbs. (The racket can no longer go up.) Of course not. There is no range of motion. Just loosen the racket slightly and grip it again. okay. Just throw it forward. okay. Throw it. (Late…🤔) The surface of the racket… you can't let go. you can't use your fingers. [release…] (While grip power is important, it's more important to release the racket lightly.) How can you use a racket when you have a tight grip? Isn't it? Rather throw it like this. Throw the racket and turn it only at the end.
Turn it at the end. Don't try to turn your wrist… just turn the face of the racket with your fingers at the end of the swing. Don't hold it. Just release. okay.release. The racket will come sideways, turn like this, and hit the shuttlecock. Right. Powerful or not? Look at the surface of the racket at impact. Bang and go forward like this. At the end. yes. The swing should turn like this at the end. What happens if the racket comes sideways and you grab it? What if I grab it? Stop. again. Try again. stop. Are you holding the racket with your index finger or thumb?
Are you holding it with your middle or ring finger? You're pushing with your thumb and supporting with your index finger, and you don't use those two fingers. That just before impact, the thumb should push slightly and hold with the index finger. ✅. If the index finger holds, only the rackethead extends forward.
But you hold on with your middle and ring fingers. ❌ The racket can't move forward because you're holding it with your middle and ring fingers. ❌ do it slowly. don't turning your wrist. Not this. You're not turning your wrist, your fingers are holding on.
If your fingers hold on, the racket head just bounces forward. okay. he doing well first… but gets weird… No… I mean… don't try to turn your wrist. Think of it as a racket face. Don't think about your wrist. Don't try to bend your wrist. 😕 [Range.] To get a good hitting point, your swing has to start before the shuttlecock gets to the hitting point. uh? This is the hitting point. The swing must start before the shuttlecock arrives. How do you swing if the shuttlecock arrives first? If you're going to hit here, you might as well get your racket before the shuttlecock gets here.
How do you swing if the shuttlecock has already arrived? How do you use the range of motion? You have to take the racket back and then go for the hitting point. Here's your hitting point… you have no takeback. How can you hit a shuttlecock when you only swing like this in front of here? Take a stand. you are going to hit the shuttlecock here. Your racket has to leave before the shuttlecock gets here, right? But you only start swinging when the shuttlecock gets to this point.❌ (It's late again…🥹) Make sure the shuttlecock doesn't come into this range. Don't let them in at all. Don't let the shuttlecock come in here. What if the shuttlecock comes within range…? When the shuttlecock enters the range, it is lated. ❌ If the shuttlecock goes inside, how will you hit it? They came in.
This will prevent you from creating a scope.
You can't make takebacks. You have to make a range of motion between the hitting point and your body to swing. Then we need to prevent the shuttlecock from entering that range. (He's trying to underclear…🤔) Where does the shuttlecock go? Where does the shuttlecock go? stop. Stay. look. You take a look. What's your thumb like? You take a look. You're already supporting it with your thumb. So the shuttlecock goes here and there. What happens to the racket because you push it with your thumb rather than placing it correctly and holding it? The strength of the thumb is too strong… ❌ So I tell you to keep your grip on the side of your thumb, but you keep pushing with your thumb. (Full-thumb grip. ❌ Don't copy…) (This is difficult to control as the rackethead winds forward, but can be done occasionally if you want to achieve irregular timing… 🧐) Where is shuttlecock going? is this right? If you push the racket with your thumb, the racket head will turn. You're trying to hit it in a straight line, so you have to throw the racket in a straight line.
If you push with your thumb, the shuttlecock will go out. Isn't it? This is a space where shuttlecocks should never enter. But the shuttlecock has already arrived here. The shuttlecock has already arrived. Then there is not enough space to swing. You set a distance, and you don't allow the shuttlecock to get inside it. Just don't let them in. Don't think about anything else, just bounce the shuttlecock forward to keep it out of range. If the shuttlecock comes this far, how are you going to swing it?.
