Re: Shooter Survey

Team 207:

-Wheel Diameter: 5 inches
-Compression: 1.5 - 2 inches
-Wheel Speed: 4500 RPM
-Travel Angle: ~50 degrees in shooting position, ~80 degrees in feeding position
-Wheel Tread: Silicone


Ball density affected our scoring ability significantly. It usually caused us to miss one or both of our autonomous shots(when we weren't feeding of course). On one particular occasion, one ball went over the top backboard and the other barely cleared the two pointers, in other instances we were able to score both 3-pointers.
