soft shot that is easy to return
Sitter – a shot hit by the opponent which is hit with very little pace and no spin which bounces high after landing thus being an easy shot to "put away"

Put away means score points. So it would be an easy shot to return and score points.

fast/hard, yet not too slow/soft.
If a player mistakenly calls a ball “out” and then realizes it was good, the point shall be replayed if the player returned the ballwithin the proper court. Nonetheless, if the player’s return of the ball results in a “weak sitter,” the player should give the opponent the point.
