The margin of miss is more important than the kicker’s leg strength.
Rarely do kickers miss a field goal short, showing that accuracy is more important than power.
Kickers who train on the Pro-Posts have a precision mindset, focusing on hitting the center rather than for power.
Major Takeaways:
-
- The weakest leg is strong enough: FG attempts rarely miss short.
- Precision: Proximity to the Middle (“PROX”) measures a kicker’s ability to cluster balls around the center of the goal posts.
- Mindset: The PROX of elite NFL kickers is less than 4 feet.
