Re: Tall Shooters vs Small Shooters

We originally planned as having our shooter at 58 inches high. Yikes we would have tipped easily. We then wanted to reduce as much weight and still have the same ability to shoot over tall defenders from blocking our shots.

So we did the math and psychics and calculated that, using our shooter would still be able to go over a 60 inch defender if we lowered the height to 48 inches. Thats about 10 inches shorter lowering our center of gravity.

So I guess we are a median shooter at 48 inches.
