Its just like kicking a soccer ball, use about 85% of your leg when you kick. You want to follow through and land about 5 yards in front of the tee. When your going to kick it, cut the ball in three.

Obviously, I'm saying this because I'm having trouble with the discription to visualization process. I think that I have it but I would like to make 100% sure so that there are no doubts in my mind. Does anyone that reads this have a digital that can take movie clips or a video cam that you can shoot the motion and upload it to youtube and provide the link or that we can post it on Martial Developement, Kung Fu artistry or where-ever?
