i've only practiced a bit this year, but i got to be the human player 2 years ago, so i've had a little previous experience. From around 15-20 feet away, i can hit our hopper 6 out of 10 times, i know, its not great, but our hopper is like 2 feet by 1 foot. However, i can drop the rate of fire (6 out of 10) into the lower goal from a straight shot, not the cross shot.
The human player is going to be useful for us, because we have to load balls from the ground 1 at a time.
i think this is gonna be great.
