Title: 30 yard Field Goal
Post by: 'taterblast on November 15, 2013, 02:34:40 PM
you get 10 attempts, with no practice kicks. Grass field. The holder is a kick stand holder like the kickers use on the sidelines.

How many do you make?

Zero. For some reason the ability to kick a football eluded my skill set.

Post by: star seed 7 on November 15, 2013, 02:43:22 PM
my yard as a kid had 2 trees that were spaced apart and had limbs that were pretty close to the outline of a goalpost.  i used to go out and kick the crap out of some field goals as a grade schooler.  they were probably 20-30 yarders.

Post by: The Big Train on November 15, 2013, 02:46:20 PM
I really don't like soccer, maybe my hatred comes from my inability to kick a football that far while I can launch a football 80 yards. So zero.

on a scale from 1 to 10, how much harder is it to do with a football than with a soccer ball?
Title: Re: 30 yard Field Goal
Post by: hemmy on November 15, 2013, 02:52:18 PM
when I was younger I might have made 1 or 2. Now, zero. Would pull a hamstring on the first attempt most likely.

I haven't, but I have tried kicking a football off of a tee before, and there is no way in hell I'm making a field goal from 30 yards out. 12-13 yards is probably about as deep as I can go.

No. I can punt pretty well, myself. Placekicking is a completely different animal, though.

a thirty yard field goal actually means kicking it forty right?  I don't think I could even kick it that far in the air.

Post by: BIG APPLE CAT on November 16, 2013, 10:14:38 AM
When I was a kid I didn't have any trees in the yard that made for good uprights so I would aim at the basketball goal. Hit the backboard regularly and netted a few times. That said, it was probably only 20 yds and I was 13. I make 1 of 10, "popping straight up" most of them and having to ice my legs the rest of the day

What? Yes they would. A field goal with the ball placed on the 20 yard line with no offensive/defensive line in front of them? 10 out of 10, 99 out of 100, no question.

More than I would miss, I would imagine.  We chip soccer goals at the park every other weekend from at least 30 out and still hit the upper 90.
