Re: Kicker Help?
Second Bill's suggestions. Once you have enough mass that the kicker isn't stopping upon impact with the ball, velocity is the primary driver of kicking distance. He didn't mention it, but mass is inversely proportional to kicking speed. More mass = less speed = less kicking distance. I'd recommend lightening your kicker until you start seeing diminishing returns in kicking distance.
