🏌️♂️ A GOLF SWING AND A KICKING SWING ARE NOT THE SAME… BUT THEY SHARE TWO POWERFUL PRINCIPLES. 🏈
There are plenty of reasons I DON’T consider a golf swing the same as a kicking swing. But there are two incredible similarities that most athletes have probably never thought about.
1️⃣ KEEP THE LIMB LONG
A professional golfer works to keep the lead arm as straight and extended as possible through the swing.
A kicker should think similarly about the kicking leg—limit unnecessary bend and create a long, powerful lever through the swing.
Why?
Because excessive bending can interrupt the transfer of energy through the body and into the ball.
2️⃣ POWER STARTS AT THE CONNECTION TO THE BODY
For the golfer, the lead arm connects to the body at the shoulder.
For the kicker, the kicking leg connects to the body at the hip.
That connection is critical.
The arm isn’t creating power by itself.
The leg isn’t creating power by itself.
The BODY creates the power—and transfers it through the shoulder or hip into the swinging limb.
Now add forward momentum to that connected, extended swing…
🔥 More body involvement
🔥 More efficient energy transfer
🔥 More natural acceleration
🔥 More POWER
The goal isn’t to swing your arm harder.
The goal isn’t to swing your leg harder.
Use the entire body to power the swing.
That’s one of the foundational concepts behind the ProForm kicking technique.
Power comes naturally when the entire body works as one.

You can’t always change someone’s mind.
But you can keep giving them a reason to reconsider.
For me, that meant showing up. Working on my craft. Staying ready for an opportunity—even when I didn’t know when it would come.
Being doubted wasn’t my choice. What I did next was.
Ever had to keep working toward something before anyone else could see it?
I WILL…

That wasn’t what I wanted to hear.
I knew my height. I also knew how much work I’d put into becoming a kicker.
I wanted the chance to let my kicking speak for itself.
Fortunately, that wasn’t the last phone call in this story.

*COMING SOON* 👊
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. I WILL…
I’ve spent a lifetime being underestimated—and learning that someone else’s doubt doesn’t have to become my own.
From the NFL to everyday life, belief, preparation, and perseverance have carried me forward. Now, I’m bringing those lessons to a new speaking and coaching platform built around WILL:
W — Willingness: Accept it.
I — Internal Belief: Believe it.
L — Learning: Prepare for it.
L — Longevity: Stay with it.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED is the decision.
WILLPOWER is the discipline.
I WILL is the promise.
What challenge are YOU ready to accept?
— Coach Mike Hollis
Former NFL All-Pro Kicker

19 years of coaching, after 17 years of playing! 36 years around the game!
Playing at the highest level of football in the world for 10 years, after 7 years of amateur football (HS & College), followed by 19 years of coaching…I’ve got the experience you are looking for in a kicking coach!

Proper #ProForm methodologies require an athlete to eliminate their “result-driven” mentality, by instead focusing and relying on the ProForm mechanics to take care of literally everything (height, distance, & accuracy). It really comes down to simplifying the process, and…wait for it………NOT CARING ABOUT WHERE THE BALL GOES. Yup, I said it!
When kickers care too much about making kicks, they complicate the process. Putting your foot on the ball with good fundamentals IS THE “TARGET,” not the goal post!
Do good “ProForm,” get good RESULTS!

Busy night in a 56-42 win! Nine kickoffs w/5 TBs, 8 for 8 on PAT with one of 35 yards, and 3 punts avg 45 yards. Here's a 61 yard punt and a 35 yard PAT.
I loved my conversation with Sammy Peterson on The Business MVP Podcast! I joined Sammy and shared why you shouldn’t change your strategy during big business decisions and the value of trusting the processes you’ve put in place. I also revealed who my biggest competitor has been throughout my career, which drove me to return to professional football at age 49.

From Sammy Peterson, host of Business MVP:
One of the most accurate kickers in NFL history told me something I haven't stopped thinking about.
Don't OVERTHINK your way into failure.
Mike Hollis dropped this hard truth on Business MVP this week.
He said:
"The first kick of the game is not different than the one I'm attempting now to win the game. There's nothing different about my job in those two instances. So why would I do anything different?"
Read that again.
The kick in the first quarter when nobody's watching the game is the exact same kick as the one that wins the game.
Same motion. Same process. Same preparation.
So why do we change everything when the pressure hits?
Mike's answer? We overthink it.
Mike became one of the most accurate kickers in NFL history by doing the opposite.
He trusted his process, whether it was the first kick or the game-winner.
The first kick is no different than the game-winner.
Your challenge:
Identify the ONE thing you do consistently well.
This week, when a big decision comes, trust the process instead of overthinking it.
Do what you've always done and let the results follow.
What's one thing you need to stop overthinking this week?

This……is ProForm! ProForm Kicking will be the basic foundation of football kicking. It’s only a matter of time and acceptance. The “best golf swing” has been established as a basic foundation of that sport…unfortunately kicking has not quite yet. #EVOLVEwithProForm
