"I am going to describe to you the underhand drop shot. Like every shot you start from the ready position. I will move from the ready position, to my forehand towards the forehand corner of the court here. Shifting my feet again and sliding all the way the corner. Upon arrival again I do not block, I do a gentle spring, and ahead of the shuttle which allows me to reposition myself after execution. The shot here is some specific, the idea of the shot is just to intercept the shuttle again as high as possible around shoulder level in order to to hit the shuttle in order for the shuttle to just fall on the other side of the net. Again very little wrist, as much arm as possible, you can execute the shot overhand or in some cases underhand depending on how the shuttle arrives at you. Like every other shot after execution I will reposition myself to the ready position and I am ready for my next shot."
