    The yardage is determined by where the ball is placed down, +10 years. So if you snap the ball from the opponents 20, and use the standard 7 yard snap, the ball is placed at the 27, and the FG attempt is a 37 yard attempt.

    Where it is kicked from. If youre on the 20 yard line it is a 37 yard fg. 10 for the end zone 7 for where it is held and kicked.

    add 7 yards for the snap and 10 yards for the endzone, so at total of 17 yards added from the spot it is kicked from.

    i would think they could use even more yards, like 8 or 9 if they wanted, hard to believe its exactly 7 every time on the snap.

    It isn't exactly 7 yards every time. It is spotted each time, so it is possible for it to be 6-9 yards. Having said that, it's probably 7 yards about 90% of the time.
