I've got the option ticked to try a field goal (<30 yards) . So why on earth did my punter punt when 15 yards out??

Match 2nd quarter.

Cheers

From 15 yards out he would actually be attempting a 32yd FG. You have to add 17 yards for the width of the endzone when deciding how far out to kick.

Just note that FGs are tough to hit around the 40-45yd mark, and almost impossible beyond 45yds, even with a fully trained kicker.Last edited on 2019-09-21 at 13:14
