Hi Will!
Can you please tell me what is the advantages and disadvantages of each stance? I always hit with a open stance but my coach will yell at me “left foot step forward”!!! So I'm kind of confuse now…

The open stance is preferred for general shots since it allows greater freedom of motion and more variation for shot placement. But the neutral stance is often good for going down the line.

This is a useful video. Please speak to the technical do’s and don’ts when hitting with a closed stance.

hi manfred, stepping in is good to begin with because it helps keep your weight moving forward till you do that you should not try open stance because you will be leaning back and off balanced and send the ball over the fence. neutral and open stance are great becuase one can produce more power through your legs on up through the shoulder turn. but only untill you are strong with the basics.
