Ok, this drill, I'm going to give Gary a feed, and he's going to try to hit the ball for a winner into the nick, so it's kind of a kill shot, attacking shot. So a lot of times in the game of squash, you have a nice, you'll hit some good shots, you'll get a short ball, and then you want to be able to kill it to end the point. So let's see what we can do here. Now I got to get them a little wider, there we go. So Gary hit that one in the nick pretty effectively. Very good Gary. So you can see what the good part of this drill is not only is he perfecting hitting kill shots, I get to pick these tough balls up, so it develops both players. Good shot. There we go. So you see how that ball bounced twice before that one's right into the nick. So what this drill develops is that ability to finish a point. Now the idea is to stay somewhat in the middle and stay away from the ball so you have room to swing and I'm not giving him a good swing there. Good shot Gary. Now there's a good one to kill. Good shot. That's the volley kill. And let's finish on a good one, Gary. Another one. Alright. So that's the kill shot in the front court. It's a great shot, and it's a fun drill to practice because both players get something out of it.
