CHOICE TO MAKE
You have to decide how many steps you will take, two or three.
Two-step approach
The Two-step approach is used as well as the Three-step approach in
high schools, college and the NFL. This site concentrates on the
Three-step approach and a variation of the Three-step approach, called
the Skip Three-step approach.
Advantage of Two-step Approach
Quicker punt time
Distance to the center is shorter, giving the center less distance
to snap the ball
Preferred by the coach if you can't punt well or are slow
Advantages to the Three-step Approach
Better balance
Easier to learn
More forward momentum into the ball
Provides more time to set the ball up for the punt
I recommend the Three-step approach for the reasons listed above.
