Summary

TLDRThe video explores two methods of setting up a football on a tee for kickoffs. One method, demonstrated by Scott, involves a slight backward lean of the ball, while the speaker discusses their preference for a slight forward tilt. The speaker believes that a forward tilt allows for better exposure of the ball, leading to more powerful kickoffs that can reach the end zone effectively. The discussion highlights the nuances of ball positioning and its impact on kicking performance, particularly for right-footed kickers.

Takeaways

  • 🏈 Two setups for the ball on the tee: leaning back vs. forward tilt.
  • 🔄 Scott's setup leans back slightly but is not tilted.
  • 👍 Speaker prefers a slight forward tilt for better kicks.
  • 💨 Forward tilt exposes more of the ball for stronger kickoffs.
  • 🏆 Best kickoffs drive the ball into the end zone effectively.

Timeline

  • 00:00:00 - 00:00:58

    The video discusses two different ways to set up a football on a tee, focusing on the setup used by Scott. The left tee is described as leaning back slightly but not tilted in any direction. The speaker, a right-footed kicker, expresses a preference for leaning the ball to the right but questions the effectiveness of this setup. They note that a straight-up tee exposes more of the ball, while their best kickoffs, which could drive the ball into the end zone, had a slight forward tilt.

    so we're taking a a look at two
  • 00:00:01
    different ways to set up the ball on
  • 00:00:04
    this black te and and the one on the
  • 00:00:06
    left is the one that Scott that's kind
  • 00:00:08
    of the way Scott set up and so from the
  • 00:00:13
    side from the side you can see it is it
  • 00:00:16
    is leaning back
  • 00:00:20
    slightly but it's not tilted One
  • 00:00:22
    Direction or another in in other words a
  • 00:00:25
    lot of times you know I I certainly
  • 00:00:27
    preferred as a right-footed kicker
  • 00:00:29
    leaning the ball
  • 00:00:30
    to the right but I don't know if you can
  • 00:00:32
    really get that effect um using that t
  • 00:00:34
    straight up and down is which is to me
  • 00:00:37
    leaning the ball forward in the kickoff
  • 00:00:38
    just it just exposes the kind of the
  • 00:00:40
    meat of the ball a little bit more um
  • 00:00:43
    and so my my best feeling kickoffs the
  • 00:00:46
    ones that I could really Drive In The
  • 00:00:47
    End Zone those were the ones that had a
  • 00:00:49
    slight forward tilt and a slight forward
  • 00:00:51
    to the

    side
