2004 Year End Awards

Finally, the 2004 awards have been finalized, and winners are listed below. These were selected purely on stats alone, so if your stats were incomplete as of 1/11/05, you may not have been eligible for these awards. If there are any stats that are questionable or falsely reported, please let me know, and we will adjust the awards accordingly. We will wait until mid-March to send out awards, to make sure we clean through any stat discrepancies.

	I wanted to give you a tremendous report on the kicking strap I purchased from Kicking.com. When I originally purchased it, I was kicking about 45 yard field goals consistently (that was in March). My minor league season runs March through September, so no weight training can be attributed to this story. It was at least 90% the kicking strap. I am now in July just four months later, kicking 55 yards consistently. I recently made a 50 yarder and a 48 yarder in an All star game. My longest now is 60 yards. That is a gain of 15 yards in a very short time. One thing I noticed was the height on my kicks is tremendous. I also attribute that to the kicking strap. I am, on long field goals, making it nearly half way to the top of the goal post. On extra points now, I kick as high as the NFL regulation goal posts. Thank you so much for your website and this kicking strap. I even have had two NFL scouts call my agent for game and tape info!
