[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 88674"] My kicking style is a little different to most people here. I like to use a small tee (or some earth will do either). I'll tilt the ball backwards towards me about 15%. Then I plant my left foot about 12" to the left of the ball with my right big toe placed as close to the point of the ball as possible without the ball toppling over. My right foot is pointed towards the right upright. As I walk back I never take my eye off the sweet spot. I'll take 4 quick steps backwards and 4 fairly big steps arced to the left. This will result in your shoulder pointing towards the uprights. I take a slow deliberate walk up to the ball, firmly plant my left foot about 18" to the right of the ball and swing through bringing my kicking leg up about hip high. Then I look up and see that I've missed! The most effective way of kicking is to develop your own style. Just make sure to plant your non kicking leg firmly, have a large swing through and don't take your eyes off the ball. [/QUOTE]
