Racket Head Speed: Jack Draper Forehand Drills
Use Draper’s junior drills to build forehand racket speed. Train to accelerate before contact, “let go,” and focus on pace, power, and explosive shot-making.
Key Points
- Explode and accelerate the racket right before you make contact
- “Loose and explosive” with the feeling of “letting go” right before contact
- It’s ok to miss balls at 15, 16 and 17; the focus should be on generating pace and developing weapons - “blitzing the ball”
- Understanding margins, trajectory and the correct spin can all be taught, but the focus should be on going for your shots
