Skills Set Shot For Goal

[Corey Davis]

just want to get some help or advice on what i can do to help improve my set shot for goal
im about 173cm 73kg
play forward flank or in the pocket
i seem to kick ordinary in a set shot situation but on the run 9\10 times i kick goals
i seem to always get under the ball and feels like its gonna hit the clouds or it comes off the side and goes through points or none at all
my action seems normal,but it isnt long either? could that also be a reason?

There's a few tips in this thread on set shots. I struggle with it quite a bit too, especially with distance from set shots (they're often just scraping over the line). Practicing lots and finding a routine which you're comfortable with and which works is really the best advice I can give, though there are a few basics to cover: build up momentum before you kick; kick through the ball; focus on dropping the ball straight; try not to put too much pressure on yourself/settle a bit before you kick. Those videos with Mayne and Lecras in the other thread are pretty handy for starting out; both are pretty basic and adaptable routines for set shots.
