My overall punting average has been decreasing because of my punter kicking it out of bounds. I would get a 50ish-60ish yard punt then follow it up with a couple 20 yard putns out of bounds.
Here are my stats: 93 Punting, 55.43 Strength, Vision 49.88, Confidence 50 and SA 5-5-6.
I am thinking that I need to raise my vision, but is there anything else I can do?

I would guess that confidence needs a boost if your punter is shanking it.

Absolutely. After scouting most of my games, I realized that I only have an opportunity for a long distance punt ( 60+ yards ), maybe 1 out of 5 times.

I stopped training in strength and have been focusing on confidence ever since.

Strength: 27.64
Vision: 32.81
Confidence: 64.84
Punting: 98.03

Due to the 20+ increase I've gotten in confidence I've gotten by training it exclusively, my production this year has been greatly improved:

Season 6:
Avg: 43.9
Net: 34.8
Punts: 49
Touchbacks: 6
In 20: 27

Season 5:
Avg: 44.9
Net: 33.1
Punts: 77
Touchbacks: 23
In 20: 30


So, I gained little distance (1 yard ), but I now touchback less than 10% of the time as opposed to nearly 30% of the time. Factor in those lost yards, and I think confidence is a very undertrained stat.

Punter - Lucius Fox
Punts: 76
TB: 14 (18.4%)
Inside 20: 38 (50%)

It looks like you are doing pretty good.

I dont have too many TB's, but I am schnanking them out of bounds at like the 35/40 yard line when I still have more distance. Will start to train confidence to help me with that. Thanks again for all the help.
