Video: High schooler kicks 52-yard field goal off friend's head
One of the most unique field goals you'll ever see.

Field goal kickers often talk about how important the hold is — the angle and position of the ball is crucial to a successful kick.

Out in Kentucky, Johnson Central (Paintsville, Ky.) kicker Tyler Pack may have just found a new favorite holder.

Pack, a senior who made headlines by nailing a 60-yard field goal as a sophomore, decided to line up on the practice field for a 52-yard attempt. For reasons unknown to this organization, friend and holder J.D. Harless decided to take a different approach.



Rather than using his hand and finger, Harless kept the ball in place using the side of his head. Holding the camera in his hand made for a unique angle as Pack's field goal sailed through the uprights.

Pack will likely make a lot of field goals this season, but probably none more memorable than this.
