and how many aces do you normally get in a set?

I am pretty aggressive with my 1st serve, so anything over 60-65% is a good average for me. My goal is to force return errors with pace but, if I'm on my game, I'll usually average 5 or so aces.
If I'm not feeling my 1st serve, I'll back off the pace and work in a lot more spin and placement to keep my opponent guessing. That secondary strategy changes my numbers dramatically (percentage goes up over 70% and aces come down to 0-2).

when im not serving well i back off and go for a serve that sets up the point well for me since i serve and volley so i go for 80 % but i usually go anywhere from 55 to 75% sometimes in the 80% with 0-2 aces a set...when im feeling real good i step up my serve and go for aces...on days like that which is probably 1 outta every three matches i have the same serve percentage with around 5-10 aces a set...it really depends on how solid ur serve is and how ur hitting it...thats what u shuld factor in when going for high percentage and agrresive

70 to 75%. I have a high paced flat serve as a first serve if i'm "in the zone" so to speak. if i'm not i'll use either a top spin or slice serve as a first.
