And the reason you don't want it is an act of generosity to me, as I hate to see it. We now will talk about the hated shot and I will propose a better way to do it.
This shot is done with the forehand with hands too close to your chest and it's usually done while standing upright and in the transition area. You get a high shot and end up shoveling it back, too high, and with no power. It looks horrible and awkward.
There are a couple of reasons this shots occurs. One is that most of us are looking to hit a forehand since we are deep in the court, but the shot is too high and too centered so we push/shovel it back. The wrist joint does not bend enough to allow us to point the paddle face downwards in this awkward geometry. If this shot is hit hard, it will go long. So you end up hitting some soft, lob like, ugly thing that never wins a point.
The better shot is to take this shot with a backhand. The wrist moves much more freely in the backhand direction. That will allow you to aim the paddle face flat or downwards. With the paddle face oriented properly you can hit the ball much harder.
This is a very common occurrence, so keep an eye out for it and try to use your backhand.
