Sounds like you might want to make your shooter so it works well after you shoot 200 or so balls with it. That's the point he's trying to make.....if you set up your shooter so it can just barely make the shots when the wheel is new, then you're going to have trouble. You want to set it up so it shoots too far when the wheel is used and has turned yellow, and dial it back a little.
