In Over My Head? I Have to Make a 47 Yard Field Goal

[Cable]

Well I am not sure how it all got started but after some friendly banter with a friend on another forum I accepted the bet. 5 kicks from 47 yards at $100 per kick! Somehow we were talking about high school glory days and I mentioned I made a 47 yarder in high school. Which I did. He called me out and said I never could. That was 13 years ago though and I haven't kicked since then.

So this got posted and gained some traction. Then the owner of Koon's Canyon Ranch said if I made just ONE of the 5 kicks he would pay for me to go to West TX and hunt mule deer with him in December. It's a $2,000 hunt! If I miss all 5...I have to go to his ranch and be camp cook and clean EVERY deer shot on opening weekend of rifle season. I took that bet too

I grew up playing soccer and I could get it there from 55 yards in practice if the wind wasn't blowing in my face. Still, I have no idea how much is left in this 31 year old leg. I just ordered a high school regulation block and a plastic holder so I can practice. It's scheduled to take place on March 16th in Keller.

Anybody else every accepted a stupid sports bet like this one? If I just make one it will be well worth it. Just not sure I can still get it there from that distance...opening weekend might be the worst one ever for me

I should for sure. I need to stop drinking the Shiner and get to doing squats and leg presses...

Can we come watch?

Good luck... it will either work out great or suck big time. Those are my favorite kind of bets.

Either way you have to let us know how it works out.

Of course. I think somebody is going to bring a smoker.

Keep your head down, focus on the spot on the ball. Go lift some leg weights.

Hmmm. Maybe you check for openings in the witness protection program?

Good luck man! I'd love to see this

Yeah I made a stupid bet with a buddy awhile back that will be taking place this summer. He wants to get our buddies together at his place at the coast. The bet is if I can squat 700 which I've done many many times but not within the year. If I win, he buys all the booze for the week, and If I lose, I supply.....


Good luck to ya.

Good luck, I'd take that bet all day long.

Even if you loose, you'll win in the long run with some good times and fellowship.
