With contact days starting today, and official practice in 2 weeks, I thought id give this time to make one more “end of summer” post on my progress. Last night I went to the field to take some kicks, and I’ll tell you now I was more than thrilled. I’ve seen so much progress this year words cannot describe how thankful I am for some of you guys helping me out and giving me advice, and most importantly I wanna give a special thanks to Mike Farley for helping me both online and at the west bend camp. Below I will attach one kick from February, march(failed PR 45 yds) beginning of summer, and end of summer including an extra point, 20 yd field goal, and a new PR!!! thank you all!

We just held our Hammond, Wisconsin camp for kicking and punting and had a very diverse group of kickers attend. As young as 12, up to seniors in high school, we had a straight on kicker and also, Lily, a senior girl who starts for the host school — St. Croix Central High. Lots of fun for Coach Dan, Coach Ryan and me in helping them become their best! 🏈

Is yours? Or are you just getting started on prepping for the Fall? One of our counselors played in the WFCA All-Star Game last Friday. Congrats, Ethan! @Ethan Van Beek

Saw this on Instagram.... Bryce Baringer, punter for the New England Patriots (6'2, 215 lbs - Michigan State earning $1,145,000). I don't know if it's a world record... but 6 seconds of hangtime? 🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈 Sheesh.

We just finished our first camp in the state of Iowa (Atlantic, IA) this past weekend. We had about a dozen campers from freshmen to seniors from all over the state. Longest drive (not counting my own 7 hour drive), was by our outstanding counselor Andrew Mohan (Jr. / Central College in Pella) about 3.5 hours away. The rest from Des Moines to Omaha. "Kids.... get to camp!" Mine, or another coaches camp. It's just good to get instruction and see how you stack up against your peers. It's usually a good motivator, both for those that find that they aren't as good as they thought, AND for those who find out that they are better than they thought. 😅
