Out stretching surgical tubing.

[23Nerdy7]

So my team has come with a recent problem that we started noticing after week 4(our second comp.), the surgical tubing that pulls our launching mechanism is becoming out stretched, therefore some of our shots(mostly our auto shots) are starting to miss.

What do you think would be the best way to fix the problem?

So far there are two ideas that our team has come up with:
1.Have a constant in auto that makes the robot drive further so we can hit each shot, and just drive further in teleop.
2.Replace the tubing every x amount of matches.

I'd like to know what your thoughts are on the two ideas or if you have your own, I believe that option 1 is inefficient compared to 2, even though we would have to replace them every so often.
