Return Fly Drive
Serves
The pesky fly
drive is serve high and strong
to carom deep
into the back corner and shoot straight out from the backwall. To tackle
the fly serve, anticipate the serve quickly and react swiftly to
whichever side it is going. After returning an infinite amount of these
drive variants, you will begin to recognize their pattern off the
backwall and increase confidence.
Since these serves are higher and take a deeper first
bounce, use the following footwork to meet the ball at the second bounce
area:
Pivot, take a large step out, larger cross over step, and
stride into the ball.
Recognition is vital. The fly
drive serve does
not have a two bounces pattern like the deadly corner drives. This
variant has a deeper first bounce. More time is available to setup if
recognized early enough along the serve's flight path.
The
fly drive serves could be tougher to return than the two bounces corner
drives if the bounce is deep in the back corner and shoots out
wallpapered to the sidewall.
Then the best return option may be a ceiling ball.
