Jonathan Johnson, Free Agent Punter, One on One Kicking Lesson (SAN DIEGO)
February 4th, 2010
On Saturday Jonathan Johnson a former punter from ASU, drove to San Diego for some private kicking lessons with kicking coach John Matich. This was the 4th time Jonathan has been down to San Diego for kicking lessons.
Jonathan who has had numerous pro tryouts came down to get some fine tuning on his punting mechanics. Last time we working on getting thru the ball and his drop table. After the first few kick, it was clear Jonathan had been doing his homework. He went on to hit some 5.0 + hang time punts and was looking smother.

However, as the lesson progressed we notice some tendecies that lead to some erratic punts . It was all in how he was dropping the ball. We went back to the basics and drove down the fundamentals of how he should be dropping the ball on his foot. We also looking closely on his left hand, he was letting go to early.
Its obvious that Jonathan has a NFL leg, and over the next few months he can work on his consistent drop, he will make a NFL roster.
We look forward to working with Jonathan again next month!
