Anyway my problem is that apart from forgetting most of what I already knew I have a problem switching between one handed and two handed shots. I do most things left handed, however as far as I can remember I've always played tennis right handed. For one handed shots I'm better right handed, but for two handed shots it feels more natural to play left handed. I imagine this isn't a good idea as I'd need to keep switching between shots. I think I might be able to play this way if I use a 'continental' grip, but I've heard that's just a beginners grip. Should I stick with playing this way, or teach myself to play one handed or two handed with the other hand (if that makes sense)?
