I read an article in the Spring of 2002 called “Dare to be Different.” It was about the Shield Punt. I loved the idea of being DIFFERENT! We installed it about a month later. And perfected it that Summer. I changed some key points to it, and created the “blocking” rules since those key details were left out.
And from 2002-2017, we punted that way 440 times!
Unfortunately, we had 3 of those punts blocked. 2002, 2006, 2014. That’s just 1 punt blocked every 147 punts. We had just 1 punt blocked every 4.6 seasons! Imagine that. I’ve blocked TWO punts in a game multiple times!
During those 440 punts, we allowed just 1 touchdown.
If your stats aren’t as good as our Shield Punt were, it’s time to take a serious look at the Shield Punt.
But it’s not just using the Shield Punt system. Many programs do. And they suck at it, because they don’t know the rules. They don’t understand the scheme. It’s time for you to change that.
If you had more than 1 punt blocked in the last 4.6 years, it’s time to take a long hard look at the system YOU use and HOW you are coaching it.
Fortunately for you, your staff and your program, I have many solutions for how you can install the Shield Punt for the 2024 season!
For as little as $14, you can buy my book on the Shield Punt, and start learning it today because it comes to your email immediately after payment.
If you want to learn it even better, buy the 2 hour recorded clinic for just $19.
For the staff who wants me to teach it to you live, there is the Silver Package.
And for the very serious staff, hire me as your Virtual Shield Punt Coordinator with the Gold Package. I’ll install it live with your program, and I’ll send every Coach the PDF book. Then, I’ll join your Hudl and watch, comment on and coach every punt of your season.
