[QUOTE="Steve-o, post: 210560"] Personally I used to palm or hand-off a tackler either on the shoulder that's going to make the hit or on his chest just under neck. If the tackler is coming low hand-off his shoulder, with him being so low you can guiding his shoulder downwards and away from you easily. Depending on the skill and size of the tackler of course. If he's coming higher try the chest hand off, right underneath the neck. That region is in line with his arms, and if you get it right on you'll notice his arms will focus on spot (probably on the arm doing the hand off) making hard to get a proper grip. [/QUOTE]
