Dennie. It is against rules to drop volley excessive
Personally I have a 2 dropvolley limit per set.
I see lots of ppl 2 drop volley per game.
No way. If you tell people they can't drop volley on short net returns, you're basically saying "You have to let me win this point, sorry."
A drop volley is exactly the play you'd make in real life, and it's exactly the play you should make on the game if you are serve and volleying. If you don't want people to hit a drop volley, then don't hit that return every single time.
I'm saying not drop on cross returns. I'm saying it's not the only way 2 win the win.
We have endless matches where you throw the drop volley in and I accept this as it usually happens 2 be right progress the point has taken.
Other people though do it all the time with no respect for the opponent.
Yeah I know -- I'm not saying it's okay to hit drop volleys all the time. I'm not even saying it's okay to hit them on every cross court return. I'm not sure how to describe it, but there is one particular short cross court return where drop volley is literally the ONLY play if you are S&V. If you're not S&V you have other plays, because you can hit a groundstroke. But if you've charged the net off your serve, the game basically forces you to hit a drop volley off that return or else you have no chance in the point.
It's basically just one specific situation that only occurs with one specific return, and only if the player is charging the net off their serve. If someone hit a drop volley 90% of the time off that play, it wouldn't bother me because I know from experience it's the only way to be in the point.
But obviously that's not what we're talking about -- we're talking about just drop volleys in general. And they definitely get abused; I've had people come to the net and hit a cross court drop volley off balls that are shoulder height. Just stupid silly stuff that's completely unrealistic.
