New TOEPRO Rules

[PatsSinceBirth73]

I'm curious. Is it an option to use passing sticks if I'm playing a solitaire game to substitute using the TTQB, even though it states "no sticks"? That should be an option of mine, right?

Hey Pats…when you are playing solitaire, play the game how it is most enjoyable to you. I personally take things I like from different rule sets and incorporate them with my own ideas and build something that suits me.

I appreciate you Carl. Honestly I have no other real issues with the new rules. It's just that I just rediscovered the hobby, and I'm not as efficient with the TTQB and will certainly practice using them until I'm as efficient as I can be. But, I like the idea of passing sticks as a alternative.

I also like using the passing sticks.  Gives the defense a chance to break on the ball, and forces the offense to find a receiver who is truly open.

They do tend to make passing in the middle of the field close to the LOS well neigh impossible, though.  So they aren't perfect.

True. I think both the traditional way and the passing sticks have their pros and cons. I would say when passing near the LOS like that, I would probably use the TTQB, since it's short, almost shovel pass type play.

We do have a provision that you can pitch the ball (automatic) to an eligible receiver behind the LOS as long as he's within a white stick of the QB.

So sorry for the delay response.  TOEPRO Football is about playing with teams and footballs. Don’t be so hard on yourself. Just make beginner results (three attempts, bouncing, etc).  You’ll get better soon or try making a TOEPRO Passer with a low-velocity release.  That’s what I play with.

I bought the Tudor Games Passing Sticks, but I'm also practicing with the TTQB as well. I just rediscovered this wonderful hobby and as I kid I wasn't good at passing using the TTQB. At now 48, I want to be as good as I can at using the TTQB.
