Tennis match

I had a tennis match today and got my butt whipped. I had the time of my life. I had many really good shots, and I had some really bad ones. I was supposed to be playing tennis, but the way I was hiting the ball way, you'd think I was playing softball. The ones that sang as they came off my racquet were music to my ears. But I had too many, that my adredeline got ahead of my swing and the ball hit the back fence.

But oh my..... my serve was on! I love my serve. Its the one moment in tennis, when everyone is still, waiting and watching for the play to begin. I can pretty much hit it right where I want it. At least I can direct it.....then there is the problem with the net getting in the way, on occasion. After the match, the opponent said "your serve is amazing...I had a hard time tracking it, there was so much kick to it" What i heard was "that was worth the $60 from the pro to tweak it!"

I have a lesson this week. I wonder what we'll work on. I want to get my moneys worth.
