Bukowski is kicking poorly. In fact, he's at the lowest percentage for field goals in the DSFL. For casual fans having heard of this kicking phenom out of college, that may be a shock. However, for those who have watched him on the field, the problems are glaringly obvious. The first sign of an issue is when Bukowski brought a golf club out for his first ever field goal in the DSFL. He then providing to swing at the ball under the holders hand like a golf ball. This was of course illegal and penalized, and Bukowski was understandably chewed out by the head coack for his prank (though he did make it through the uprights). What they didn't know at the time was that this was not a prank: Bukowski had gotten his sports confused in the heat of the moment. Once he was explained what sport he was playing, he made the retry. How could he have made such a mental error? We don't know, but he's seemed shook ever since. At this point we must look towards a bounceback season next year.
