Video Transcript

"Okay, in this drill, Gary's going to hit predominantly lobs and I'm going to hit a boast. So, a lot of time people don't get enough practice on their lobs so doing this version of the boast drive drill, it's another drive we're going to hit, a boast cross court, we're going to hit a lob. So, I'm going to hit a boast, Gary's going to hit a lob. So it's a nice, easy, relaxed drill but it works on a very, very important shot that's pretty much on your practice. So here we go. Good shot, Gary. It's a nice deep lob. That's excellent shot. So, if we were playing a game right now, when he hits a lob of that quality, it forces the player at the tee into the back corner. So see how he gets underneath the ball? He gets low. Very good, Gary. He gets low and he hits the ball high off the front wall. So it comes down real slow. Good shot, Gary. It's pretty tough. Awe, it's real tough. So that's the lob boast drill. And try to hit it there really good. So that's the lob boast drill and it works on your cross court lob like no other drill. You get a lot of repetitions in a short amount of time. It's the best way to perfect that shot."
