I forgot to specifically mention this in my previous question....One of the areas I want to focus on excelling in first is my serve. Bare in mind, I am only going to play my first real game tomorrow since the courts here have been covered in snow. (We finished shoveling them off today, which mind you was a LOT of work.)
I've been practicing, but I have no idea if what I am doing is correct. I'll try to explain what I've been doing:
I start with my feet sideways, toss the ball up in front of me. I allow it to roll off my fingers and spin towards my target. I dip below it and bring my racket around and arc it up behind me, trying to whip the ball by using my wrist. All I have really been able to do so far is smack it like that, and I'm not very accurate...
I know that's probably not correct at all, since I just started DOING it because it felt natural.
So, what can I do to make my serve like a precisely guided SCUD missle and strike fear into my opponent? = P Haha.

I can't believe I forgot to add this: I am left handed.
