We have similar shooter. We had two sets of wheels that create a v-groove that holds the Frisbee really well. During the beginning of Friday matches we were having issues with our jags that controlled the shooter. So during autonomous and half of the driver controlled period one set of wheels was running at full speed with a Frisbee stuck rubbing against it.
