I have been browsing other videos around and it is by far the hardest most linear shot that I have seen, and the distance shot from is pretty far too.

Does it shoot the same with a brand new ball and a well worn ball?

Actually, it does! The ball we got at kickoff has holes and duct tape all over it, and it shot almost the exact same as the balls we bought from AndyMark a few days ago.

We got that from the video. :rolleyes:

Our shooter shoots balls so fast we couldn't actually take video of it because no one could get a camera out fast enough. All we got was a single picture of me getting ready to load it:

Great work by the entire Sanger Rookie team to work through over 20 different designs and layouts for the mechanism before optimizing this one. Look for Video #2 coming out soon to address some of the questions on accuracy.:cool:
