On the rise

Just returned from a 3 hour tennis hit and it feels great. The campus here has 6 clay courts and its maintained wonderfully well. Have played on 3 of those by now and hope to cover all 6 before I return. Its great to play the ball on the rise and Iam trying to do that on the forehand. I also have a flat forehand which I am trying to hit with a little bit of spin. Lets see how that works out.
