You do have to have a magnet on the TDK base to hold it firmly in place. I have neodymium type magnet the size of calculator battery that fits nicely under the base. These magnets are STRONG and actually inexpensive. Carl has a standard magnet that is why it is much larger to do the same job.
Again, Coach Carl thanks for sharing!

Sir Geno's TDK's will take a 2 to 3 second delay to kick the pig skin off of the kicking Tee.
If you Prop it back behind the footrest properly, completely behind the footrest you will get that 2 to 3 second delay kick.
That's just enough time for the Defense to try and break the line of scrimmage to attempt a Field Goal Block as well.
I purchased my Magnet cubes at Michaels's Hobby Lobby Store.
Yes, Geno explained it just like I explained it to him the other night.
The way to activate the live action is to turn the game on after you have your footrest set, and the ball sitting on the Kicking Tee properly, adjustments on how your kick will determine how you place the ball on the Kicking Tee also.
One more Note: Any ball is good to use, but, the rubber balls are a little sticky.
So, if you don't mind Getting a Q-Tip , and small amount of vaseline jelly, i'll explain what you could use it for " it's optional " .
I take my Q-Tip with the grease on it, and wipe the Footrest, and the Kicking Tee to get a smoother release from the footrest, and the rubber football.
You can use what ever your ok with, but that's a plus I see using rubber footballs that stick to the Tee and the ball goes everywhere..
Thanks Geno for explaining to the Coaches wink.............
