Originally we were thinking about making some kind of catapult of pneumatic puncher because we thought it would be more consistent than a wheeled shooter. However, we weren't really getting anywhere with our prototypes, and we had done a two-wheeled shooter in 2012, so that's what we went with.

I'm happy with the way our shooter turned out. We debuted in Alamo shooting an average of four high goals a game and only missing two during the regional, including one in a practice match. We've been able to tweak it a lot throughout the season (adding encoders, adjusting the ranges for our close and far shots, etc.) This was largely due to the fact that we designed in a lot of adjustability for the angle and speed of our shots.
