[QUOTE="milani, post: 1089789, member: 6654"] It certainly is. But it is the foot that kicks the ball which has the most impact. That is why Lou Groza's nickname was the Toe. ST practices the snap and hold a zillion times a year. It is the easiest part of the process because the defense cannot react until it actually happens. As far as weather goes, back in the 1962 Championship Game, Jerry Kramer kicked 3 FGs out of 5 in about 20 degree temps with crosswinds anywhere from 30 to 50 mph with gusts. And Yankee Stadium back then was much more open air in the outfield which brought the gale currents much lower than kickers see today. Place kicking is not that much different from shooting free throws in the modern era. [/QUOTE]
