Balls will be different densities at the competition too. You have to design around this. We found that the newer, harder balls go further, and the more used, squishier balls don't go as far.

So, you have a window of shooting where the newer balls go further, hit the backboard and get in, and from the same distance and setup, the older balls will go straight into the hoop.

See what I mean? You can get them both in, but the one going further will rebound from the backboard while one dunks.
