Oftentimes you have a choice between rushing forward and taking the ball as a low volley or being patient and taking the ball off the bounce as a half-volley. Brady discusses what he thinks is generally the better play in today’s video.

i tend to agree with Mr Aplin – especially if your footspeed is not the fastest
Hmm, first time ever that you haven’t fully convinced me Brady. At your height you have great reach to make a low volley, most of us don’t. I’ll always try to make the volley if I can, but I often can’t get there so I play a half volley. Also by its very nature a low volley is always hit up. I’d tend to favour a half volley but with the proviso that you must get your weight moving forward and on top of it. Get it right and I also think it can be a more attacking shot.
Agree on the volley as a old lesson in tennis!
Really a helpful session, Brady.
Thank. You the reminders are so good & they make so much sense.
Very usable tips
