Re: Building a Practice Field
IndySam has it right. While we don't have a permanent field, we still mange about a half size field (~full length field, half width) that's simple enough to put up and take down. The low cost field usually isn't all that bad for practice upon; you simply take a few trips to the practice field and calibrate your skills back over to the competition field. Generally the big practice is the same and it's the fine motor skills that just need a little tweaking form field to field.

Yes, I have already determined that the device is capable of launching 2,160 Krispy Kreme donuts into the back seat of my Mustang with a vertical displacement of 65 feet, without cracking the sugary glaze on a single donut. - dlavery [more]
