As football season approaches, I thought this would be a good chance to discuss what to do, and not to do, while shooting footbal games...
Please share your tips and tricks... I need all the help I can get
This year, I'll be shooting high school ball...
Last year was my first year shooting football, and I'm excited about this season...
Here are two tips I learned last year...
1) Try to position yourself between the quarterback and his receiver... then you can get the face of the quarterback as he throws it, and hopefully get the receiver as he turns around to catch the ball...
2) Don't stand on the goal line hoping to get the perfect touchdown shot on a goal line stand...
A referee will almost always run to that spot to call the touchdown, and unless you want a back of a zebra, it's not a good plan.
Here are a couple of images from this week's scrimmage...

Hope to hear your tips...
