At which point in the service motion do you press left or right and for how long?

I usually try to direct it just before the ball starts falling after the toss but I don't always get consistent results. Just wondering if anyone has any tips?

It's about feeling, I don't know if it's a placebo effect but I find it different between players who use different animations.

Just keep practicing enough and you'll learn the perfect time to press the direction to hit the lines, I can't suggest any exact timing though.

Aiming sensivity is same for all serve anims, but some anims make the ball toss earlier & longer than others.
So the idea is you need ~1.5 second to aim for the line before to hit the ball ; with some anim the toss starts just at that time so it's easy to use it to aim well ; on some other anims you have to use less clear visual reference (ie: the current ball height).

Really have big problems with the serve.
My 1st serve % s always around 50% only.
We dont talk about aces... rarity.
In my eyes it changes for court and sometimes for games and whatever.
I am really frustrated when first serves are not coming and i try nearly every f**** thing.
(HIt bit earlier - bit later..) all to net. Or too long. Most is too long or into net.
Really I dont know the problem cuz in next game everythings well.
Playing with sams patch and roger federer anim.

Just wanted you to know.

ElNino,
only this matters => https://www.managames.com/tennis/doc/Ten ... ml#service

even with the new settings (84% in power, 100% in consistency) i'm still between 50 & 60% ... no more

whatever the serve style...

And offline, i'm between 70 & 80%

seb,
in Free mode (either offline or online), 84/100 => +16%.
In Fair mode (either offline or online), 84/100 => +8% (as it's remapped to 62/70), thus a lower 1st serve in rate.

This is one example of what I am talking about in that Topic in LR where u wrote about strike styles
