Steps
The steps are also an important key to a
successful punt. How many steps to take? The optimal punt is the two-step
punt. This sets up a quick get-off time and less chance of error in
your steps. Your first step should always lead off with your punting foot.
Therefore, if you are right footed, it should go right, left, then punt
with your right foot.
Now step forward as if you are catching the snap
and take your normal steps down the line… keeping the line between your feet.
It is important that your feet never cross over the line. This will keep you in
proper alignment to your target, with your hips parallel to the target. Try to keep your steps as short as possible.
The first step is a directional step and should be completed quickly. Be
sure not to over-extend on the first step.

Position yourself over a straight line with the
line between your feet… in a start position like you are getting ready to
receive a snap from center.
