I'm English so probably misinformed but this really doesn't look that difficult?

The guy organizing this is a former NFL punter and part of the reason he does it is to show how hard it actually is to kick a 33 yard field goal. The whole point is that it looks easy and college kids step up to fail miserably.

In Australian rules football even our under 16s kids can kick 30m goals, using a similar profile ball. I guess that's why we export so many punters to the US.

Dude, I've never played football before I tried this with a football once and made a shot like this easily. I did play soccer until I was 16 though.
