For a Right-footer, the Torpedo punt is produced by holding the ball with both hands one each side of the ball but in a semi-staggered position - such that the ball sits between the hands with the left hand positioned mainly at the front half of the ball and the right mostly at the back half of the ball. In this positioning, the ball should be positioned such that it is angled slightly across the body, so that its far end is pointed about 15 degrees to the left of pointing straight ahead [in other words, it is not pointing directly ahead: it is angled a few degrees across the body].
As the player moves forward to kick, he holds the ball over the right foot, and then drops the ball onto the slightly outer side of the top instep of his right foot guiding the ball to the foot with his right hand only. His weight is directed behind the ball and his foot pointed by the time it makes contact with the ball. When the ball is dropped, it is only at a very slight angle to the ground, so that the kick is quite a flat kick at contact, and the leg follow-through is complete. The ball is kicked so that it spirals through the air like the spiralling of a bullet. With practice, it will cover great distances.
