#1002: Don't Hate Lobs — Learn How to Control Them
#1002: Coach Leia Miller talks about how frustrating lobs can be and while they are rarely seen on the pro circuit, they can be a common weapon on the amateur court. She offers suggestions on how to keep them from rattling your cage, and even turn them against the lobber.
In this episode you’ll hear:
Why offensive lobs work—even when they shouldn’t
The difference between a smart lob… and a “cop-out” one
When a lob is actually the right shot (hint: it’s not every third ball)
Why lobbing can secretly put your partner in a terrible position
The one thing you should do instead of getting frustrated (harder than it sounds)
When players should actually start learning lobs (and it’s later than you think)
