Re: Shooting full court?

It seems reasonably likely (at least to me) we will see a fair number of full-court capable shooters based on all the videos people are posting. I believe the best shooting teams will just keep that as a capability on their robot and use it if there are no capable defenders against them as it's an incredibly high scoring strategy. Then if someone is capable or willing to play defense, they will just zip down field and make closer shots that can't be as easily blocked.

We are building a climbing robot first, shooting second and so our range is no where near this far. But in all our strategy sessions, we did talk about what we would do if it was a shooter first and it looked something like what I've posted above.
