Lions Long Snapper Don Muhlbach Works With New Punter and Holder

By: Long Snapping Coach Kyle Stelter

Long snapping is arguably one of the toughest positions in football. Im not looking for an argument here, but not everyone can do it. As a long snapping coach I am able to work with many students, some pick the skill up quickly, but most struggle and have to work at it. 

Long Snapping Coach Kyle Stelter Lesson with Grant Studer

By: Long Snapping Coach Kyle Stelter

Saturday May 25th I met up with long snapper Grant Studer of Apple Valley Minnesota at East Ridge High School in Woodbury. Grant has been a long snapping student of mine for about a year now and has made leaps in improvements since we first started working!

When Grant and I first started our long snapping lessons he was a freshman in high school and had been long snapping for a while. Grant was a self taught guy who was getting a ball to spiral but it would arch back to the punter and was inaccurate.

Long Snapper Joe Marchese Will Walk on at Maryland

Not all long snappers were born long snappers, or even did it as their first position in high school! Some dabbled and now either play college or make careers out the skill. I was just like Marchese, a offensive lineman with dreams of playing college football.

Long Snapping Lesson with James Ring

By: Long Snapping Coach Kyle Stelter

Today I met up with James Ring of The Blake High School in MN for our long snapping lesson. James has been improving on his long snapping since the first day we met. At first James had issues with flexibility which limited his ability to get into a proper long snapping stance. After weeks and weeks of flexibility training James came in today being the most flexible I have seen him yet!

We focused today's long snapping lesson on getting into a better stance, and leg lock. James is extremely close to getting perfect leg lock while long snapping however he is still getting a slight hop into his leg drive instead of locking and sliding.
