The Sport of Squash - Forehand Ball Control in the Sport of Squash
From Apply Now, former About.com Guide
The ball is definitely a bit 'dead' and the bounce is not as high as that of a tennis ball or a racquetball. Let the ball bounce once on the floor, and then hit it as it drops towards its second bounce. Ideally, you will hit the ball when it has come back from the front wall and is about even with your front foot (the striker's left foot in this picture).
