I had to try this. I ran down to the basement and set it up. First try was a no go. Switched the kicker onto a 7 gram weighted base, made sure the foot was just right and he went 3 out of the next 4 from 35 yards out......hands free. Way too cool!

for those who cant view at the moment
Coaches,
For those of us who can't view you tube at the moment, what exactly is the scenario we are supposed to be watching/then trying. Also, does anyone have pic's on the best way to set up the leg on the tdk. My kicks keep hooking right. mantaraydre

I'll Explain what I stumbled upon for you.....
Quote:
STEP1 : Was to make My TDK solid, not move during vibration..  Step 2 : Paint the magnet and the base to blend in with the field " optional "   Making your TDK Kick straight!? Well!?..... that's why I said.... LACES OUT.... Your now just a holder for your TDK. Set the Ball on the Kick T in a angle for different results... It's all up the the place kicker to keep the ball placed just right .. That's the fun part about this discovery.. It's is no garuntee you'll do it right everytime until you practice it.. But I'll let you know.... If your going to kick the ball in play on Kick off Returns, try to tilting the Football away from the Kicker before turning on the game.. It takes off large amounts of force this TDK has. The TDK can barely touch the ball and it's rocket launched.. lol... Practice , that's all I can tell ya, Practice all angles I gave you the best one to start with though.... Good luck.. and have some fun with it..

No Hands
That kick was beautiful. I liked it mainly because there were no hands on the table. It looked just like a real game. The Electric Coach is going to have to try to pull off something like that.

Coach Maurice......
Quote:
I've seen your practice session's, you can pull this place kicking off. I'm counting on you fella.....  Angling the ball is key..... These TDk's are strong enough compensate your angling the ball away from it's power kicks.. Right kicks, left kicks, or straight kicks are all possibilities. I get live kick-off returns too.. because I Practice, practice, and more practice lol.... as if I had a league to play in lol......Having a good time at home for a few hours a week is a blessing..Make it happen Sir Maurice...

Coaches,
Here is whats happening. The foot is held in place by the footrest on the TDK while you are placing the ball on the tee. If you place the foot on the footrest just enough to catch it then when the board is turned on it acts like a hair trigger and the vibration of the board causes the foot to slip and kick the ball automatically or a "no hands kick". 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! Geno H

Alright, no problem Fella's....
Quote:
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.............
