Of course it wasn't pretty, but I was out there hitting the ball for the first time in over 2 years. I needed a few extra tools, but boy did it feel good. And I was on the courts for nearly an hour and a half.
Trying to picture how I managed it? Forearm crutch left hand, tennis racquet right hand, a walker parked nearby (on court), a bunch of balls, and a very, very patient wife. She'd hit the ball to my forehand (as best she could) and I'd fire it back. We almost got to six hits total in our best rally. I rested on the walker each time we ran out of balls. She got her exercise chasing after them.
Like I said, not pretty, but beautiful in its own way....
