Installing Today’s Hybrid Pistol Offense Run & Pass from Top to Bottom
This manual provides you with the full offensive line, receiver, and quarterback mechanics for installing each offensive play presented. Coach Campbell has left no stone unturned for implementing today’s Pistol Offense into your program.
HI all, new to the site, I was searching and come across the site and I have found so much useful info it's awesome.
Anyway what I am looking for is a tool to use when drawing formations. I am a newly named high school defensive coord and what I want to do is make play cards using 4x6 index cards.
These will be used to show our scout team players what to do when scrimmaging the starting defense. It is fast and effective during practice.
I have seen these templates before and have found only one on the internet and it is too large for me, I would prefer one that will size up to an index card.
It is similar to is the templates used by architects for drafting. Any links or where to's to find some would be greatly appreciated!
I'd suggest simply using Word or PowerPoint, if all you need is formations. They are somewhat labor intensive for full plays, but they work pretty well.

There is nothing that will show a man's true character like the 2 yard line.
coach I use powerpoint for everything. I agree with Coach Kelly though. Do the formations on powepoint, print them, then draw the lines yourself. Believe me, I tried it for about 3 weeks and realized it was just too labor intensive. Now, I simply print out the formation and use sharpie to draw the movements.
Good luck

I do same with Playmaker Pro. It is very labor intensive even with the features of the program to reset everything.
Draw out various formations and print them. Copy them X number of times and draw in by hand what you want. Took me about 2 Months to do a playbook using the aforementioned software. I could have done the same in about 1 week drawing them in.
Albeit the professionally draw stuff does look a lot better. The question is are you after a Pulitzer in Literature or getting numerous quantities of materials ready for use?
I like things neat but I have learned to take my time and color within the lines.......LOL
Its not about how much YOU know about the game, its about how much you share that knowledge with the people around you.
