One of the better tips I got from a high school coach when kicking outdoors in the wind, is to look for a flag. It’s been over 30 years ago, but if memory serves, a flag that’s flying straight across means the wind is around 10-15 or more mph. Useful tip for punters as well. Core strength and flexibility is also very important.
I started 2 years ago but it don't hurt to get extra practice coach says I needa work on getting it higher and far at the same time but now I'm good :)🖖👍
As a former kicker, I must say that kickers are so good now that they are in real danger of becoming obsolete in the future. There is no drama anymore, perfection becomes boring for the fans. I think they will first narrow the goal posts to 10 feet wide then they will eventually eliminate field goals and extra points from the game. They are already leaning towards eliminating kickoffs so it is not as far fetched as it sounds. Better job security for punters. The kickers won't be missed by the fans or the players and coaches, who never really considered kickers to be legitimate football players anyway, Trust me I know.
i have a question im a lefty but when i go to kick the ball my foot tends to turn inward since when i walk my foot turns slightly inward how can i correct that?
martin ahlström lol yeah when I️ tried out for kicker I️ had never kicked a football before but played soccer for 6 years and nailed a 35 yarder first try and it was over the crossbar by 7 yards and everyone just left the line immediately
I saw your video went out, bought a ball and tried it and it worked after a month. No one explained it in detail like you.
Are you still kicking 3 years later?
@@SimpleKicking Not in a few months. The park is now filled with field goal kickers. Lol
This is actually one of the better instructional vids I’ve seen. Much more informational for younger kickers than the IMG videos
This is an excellent video containing helpful tips and tricks!
the mindset is what matters
Sam Dawkins good technique is pretty important too.

Are you charting your field goals? How are you improving over the last few years?

Look up snap kick punt with David Brader
Straight on toe kick vs soccer style. Any advice?

Damn this was tough to watch cause my high school senior brother lost in the semi finals
Wilder Wildcats 40-42 Valley Vikings
Is this in the holy arena at Idaho state?
Yes it is.
Why do you say three yards back when you are stepping four yards back?
Im your 200 subscriber
great details, great linear illustration
How has it been helpful for your kicking since you watched the video?
Oh yes idaho's stadium
Just a bunch of bullshit on how to kick a ball, just go out and practice and you will figure it out. It doesn't take 5 min to explain.
