As Blackie Jones (my first coach) would ask of a student,"If there are two parts to the serve, being the toss and the swing, do you think it is better to swing at the toss, or toss into the swing?"

And as his lessons and demonstrations proceeded, we were schooled in the tempo, the technique, and the benefits for a toss that was low without being overly low, and this produced a motion that was rhythmic and flowing.
