Thanks for the tip, but I don't quite follow. Let me know if I'm explaining correctly what you just stated. If the receiver is coming back towards the line of scrimmage, you are saying you don't hit the stick to push him the other direction (towards the goalline) after the the receiver makes the catch? And that solves the spot of ball problem?
