In the past month I have been reviewing the initial video submissions from subscribers to BTS I use their self assessment to correlate my thoughts about how their serve looks, what their experience has been, and specifically what each one wants to do better But so far there has been one fact that truly stands ...…
Last week we launched Building the Serve from the Ground Up (BTS) The initial response has been overwhelming. I had offered BTS with a bushel basket of bonuses – including: 2 free swing reviews 2 two months complimentary membership to my new online membership site – the ETI•Network BTS companion booklet On Court Exercise drill sheet ...…
Andy Murray is having a pretty darn good year, and it is only April. He was won titles in Doha, Rotterdam and Miami, with wins over Nadal, Federer, Djokovic and Roddick in the 2009 campaign, with a startling 29-3 record. Presently ranked fourth with 9050 points, he is nipping at the heels of both Djokovic ...…

Certainly Benhabiles got this thing started, and Gilbert was on board with the US Open title and the briefly held ...…
Serving wide to the backhand corner has been employed by serve and volleyers and now by the heavy baseline players. And when returned poorly, most points end with a winner to the open court. Certainly Rafa sidepsins nearly every ball to the Fed backhand in the ad court. And the wicked spin, coupled with a ...…
I was riveted to the television screen in the early morning hours – pulling for Federer but equally if now not more so, coming to love the game of Nadal as well. Though this is a game that you and I play, as well as enjoy as spectators, truly these guys do things with the ball, ...…
