Problem: anticipating the spike in volleyball
Solution: shoot more (I have two daughters playing so following the action isn't an issue-it's the brain to finger thing)

With 2 bad knees it really bothers me I can get low to clean up backgrounds or get low to have a unique shot or angle. I'll just keep hitting the training room. Brad Moore

*Knowledge* Senior Member More info | Oct 27, 2009 23:09 | #35 I find that I tend to miss some shots because I'm switching between the long prime(300, 400) with monopod to the second body with the 70-200. I'm Preston & I pretend to know what I'm doing but I really just wing it.
