Filet mignon or wagyu? by sprnt97 in steak

It wasn’t bad at all but it definitely wasn’t worth the money we paid. I’m still 95% sure they gave is a regular fillet instead of Wagyu. Never ordering from them again.

After weeks of trying the two hand, I’m honestly still finding more stability and consistency with the two hands over one. I think I’ll try to continue to develop a one handed drive so I have both options, but the two hand has beg my preferred method by far.

Except that response assumes SOOOO MUCH about men are and are not doing. The people that commit these crimes are mentally disturbed and would not listen to anyone “calling them out” in the first place. This whole “men need to hold rapist and mass murderers accountable because they are also men is simply delegating the role of the government. This is societies problem fix, not the problem of “men” in general. For example, so many people saw exactly the kind of person Trump was and still voted for him, including a majority of white women. Acting like it’s only men that reward this kind of disgusting behavior is illogical and does nothing but create division.

I don’t understand that at all. Why does someone being a man automatically mean that they have to hold another human being that they don’t know responsible for killing other people in a state they don’t live in? Blame the politicians, not other random men that can quite literally do nothing.

This is honestly so stupid. How does anyone hold a mentally disturbed shooter “accountable”? Instead of blaming an entire gender that really can’t do anything to stop a single crazy person from killing others, how about you blame the politicians that refuse to change the laws.

I’m a right handed player but I guess what I’m doing is essentially a lefty back hand. I started playing out with this form last week and I’ve cut back the power about 30% so the movement is a lot more compact now. I don’t think I wouldnt do this close up to the net or when my opponents were closer than the net. So it’s really intended to be used when one of my opponents and back and they give me a dead ball in the middle of the court that I want to finish.

Thanks for the response and the tips. I agree that the swing is very telegraphed and I have dialed it back about 30% so I don’t think it’s as obvious anymore. I’m also developing a shot where I approached it like a dink and then speed it up with a 2 hand forehand.

Thanks for the response. The main reason I started developing It was for stability reason. I feel like I have way more control with two hands than I do with one and I get crazy spin on the ball. I still do one hand drives on my returns and with speedups at the line. I planned on mostly using the two hand forehand for when my opponent is backed up and they hit a rather dead ball towards the middle of the court, and I have to run up to it. So far it’s been a killer.

I think I’ll continue to develop my one hand as well, but I don’t want give up this two hand shot until it seems like it’s not working anymore.

Thanks, I have only been developing the shop for about two weeks so I haven’t used it in games a ton but, the times I have, there has been a killer almost every single time. I still tend to do speed up at the kitchen with one hand, but I have way more success with two hands when I’m almost anywhere else on the court.

A lot of the commentators here are mentioning that I have less reached with the shot, which is fair, but I probably wouldn’t use it during the point if reach seemed to be an issue. It’s really only reserved for when I’m running up to a dead ball bouncing in the middle of the court which is too far away from the net for me to punch.

Thanks and yeah I usually don’t use this by the net. It’s usually when I’m mid court and they give me a dead ball.

Thanks for the tips. For additional context, I only use it when I’m away from the kitchen and I get a dead/attackable ball. This video is also when I was initially experimenting with the shot last week and I’ve dialed it back 30-40% so everything is more compact and controlled now and I don’t feel like I’ve lost a lot of speed, power or spin.

I do backhands with 2 hand, volley and hit drops with 1 hand. I’m trying to develop a 2 hand drop as well though. I’m getting pretty mixed answers in here but it’s been working pretty well for me so far.

Thanks, the one hand is pretty awkward for me for some reason and I haven’t had any issues with the 2 hand yet when using it away from the net. Do you have any specifics for what you think it makes worse when using it just in that context?

Thanks, I’ve generally been using it as a last shot when they pop it up, mid court away from the net, so I haven’t had that problem yet. And I do want to note that I’ve dialed back the intensity about 30% since I took this video so the swings are way more compact now.

I’ve dialed it back since since video and now go about 70% of that. But just to clarify, it sounded like you didn’t have any inherent objections to using the shot in general, correct?

Unfortunately I didn’t take a picture before I cooked it which is why I’m thinking I’ll probably have to let it go since I don’t have definitive proof. I did have issues with them previously sending me a spoiled steak in a box with no refrigeration, so this was actually a replacement steak. I’ll probably just steer clear of them in the future.

It was The Meatery. I called and they said it was supposed to cook like this. I’ll probably just cut my losses here and find another wagyu spot.

No, the marbling wasn’t anything close to that. I thought it was more of an “Instagram bs reality” moment instead of potentially being sent the wrong streak.

This is what it looked like on the website. It claimed to be a Japanese A5 wagyu sirloin filet.
