THE ‘PISTOL’
Spin, Theory, Ball Handling, and Backfield action
Kyle Hockman
Head Football Coach
Campbell High School, Smyrna, GA
Pistol – what is it?
• Shorter ‘Shot Gun’.
• QB heals at 4yds.
• RB still in TB spot.
• Offset FB or ‘H’Back
• One Back
QB 4yd
ALIGNMENT
Must adjust dept according to your scheme, speed of TB, snap speed
ALIGNMENT
6 ½ YDS
Must adjust dept according to your scheme, speed of TB, snap speed
4 YDS
Q
THEORY
Why? Advantages of ‘Gun’
• QB instant separation
• QB line of sight, vision
• QB read element
• QB run element
THEORY
Why? Advantages of ‘I’
• down hill run game
-Iso, Power, Counter, Toss, etc.
• RB shoulder square
• Either direction
• Runners/runners & blockers are blockers
• Pressure off QB
Plus - SPIN
• Deception – we all need it, not good enough to line up and beat people.
QB blocks vision of Defense to RB.
QB turning back to Defense to hide the ball.
• Ball quicker to RB.
• .35 ave time to QB, undercenter .75
• .95 ave time pistol +3, undercenter 1.35
PISTOL – Is it for you?
• You like those ideas?
• Ok, so fit all those elements together with the Pistol
• Gun but need more power
• Under center but need more deception.
Ball Handling -must Consider…
• Must practice snaps everyday – pre-practice warm up.
• Center snaps – accuracy more critical in the pistol because its quicker than Gun.
• QB’s ball skills – same reason as above, slow twitch guy.
• Would you do it with back ups?
• Would you do it in the rain and mud?
Center Snaps
• Techniques – spin and flip – bothWhich is best for center or QB.• Firm but not fast – trail and error.• Adjust depths and steps according to speed of
snap.• Narrow base and low butt – small window, small
miss.• Flick wrist as arm hits leg. • Trail and error – for spin – our center,1 ½
rotations.
RISKY?
Campbell ’06 –
Pistol/Gun
500 snaps = 2 bad snap, 1 bobble.
‘Undercenter’
100 snaps = 1 muffed snap.
7 turnovers all season – 6 fumbles, 1 int.
Backfield Techniques
• Timing – can adjust depths if needed. • RB toes at 6 ½ yds, have moved to 7 or 6
based on speed and play.• QB spin must be quick and consistent to
specific play.• QB must stomach ball like under center.• Hand-off are executed like under center.• QB angle will adjusted based on play.• Toss must be a quick, flat toss.
