Beyond the introduction of the spider line it is unnecessary to mention the various steps by which the Gascoigne micrometer assumed the modern forms now in use, or to describe in detail the suggestions of Hooke, 4 Wren, Smeaton, Cassini, Bradley, Maskelyne, Herschel, Arago, Pearson, Bessel, Struve, Dawes, &c., or the successive productions of the great artists Ramsden, Troughton, Fraunhofer, Ertel, Simms, Cooke, Grubb, Clarke and Repsold.
It depends if you're going for a long shot with power or a short shot with power. I'm going to assume you're going for the long shots. Take about 5 steps back at a 7 o clock aâ¦ngle to the ball. Take 3 quick, tiny steps then take a really fast run up.
Keep the ball in line with your hitting shoulder and about 1 foot in front of you so you can step into the serve. Your right hand should be at a 90 degree angle behind your body. Remember that you want your dominant hand to make contact with the ball just after it changes direction and begins to drop back down.
