When we inject more power than we can control, we introduce a degree of leverage, but, when it creeps in near the end, that is just before impact, it may produce no appreciable damage, provided the stroke has started as a swing and this action has been maintained almost up to the instant of impact.

Say to yourself, 'I am going to hit the ball with my hands, and I must keep my head immovable until those hands have flashed past my line of vision with a flick of the wrists.' As far as possible, get your brains into your ...
