aprice is right, normal shot (no turning, no further attempts, no let called, no side wall boast etc) and ball would not be classified as a good shot, hand out.  Refer Rule 9 (G4).for clarification. What I don't get with the question is how could the player get  hit if they were not in the line of flight to the front wall, and why was not a  let called and mabe a let or stroke allowed, or did the player "pull their shot" in fear of hurting their opponent? hence the return hit them on the lower part of the body?

Read Rule 9 thoroughly as it is not a straight-forward answer.

Thanks Arthur for taking the time to read this thoroughly.  See Relevant content tab as this is a popular question.

I thought that if the return would not have been good i.e. would have tinned then it would be no let am I wrong?

If the ball hits the player "hand out".  See the basic rules.
