many years ago i dated a girl who was very into volley ball. i’d play along in pick up games but it drove her nuts. She had the standard running-leaping power serve and with mine I’d just stand there with the grade school ‘bloop’ but I had great control and could drop the ball just wear I wanted.
“would you serve like a normal person!!!”
“But this works just fine.” the fact i could drop it right into hollows and blind spots just infuriated her in all the best ways.
You’re playing with a pro, Snoopy. With your skill, only a tennis champion like Agassi could do a first serve return winner. You should have complained to the chair umpire like a real champion. No Fair!
A bit like volleyball at age 8. If the server gets it over the net, they score a point and he gets to try again. If he doesn’t, the other side rotates and somebody else gets to try.

Snoopy should stick to baseball and Sopwith Camels.

I can’t imagine Snoopy hits it very hard.

It’s even worse if it’s returned with postage due.

This takes place in 1973, the year it was Billie Jean King vs Bobby Riggs.

You may need to change it up then, Snoopy!

That is the general idea.

So you hate what they are supposed to do? Got you Snoopy.

He should play soccer.

At least the return didn’t undress him, like often happens to his owner on the baseball diamond…

Strong serve but no game. Snoopy’s not the only one.

i object is to hit it back to them after they hit it back to you. the instructor should have to you that.

I didn’t mind a returned serve… unless it came back faster than I served it in the first place.
