Shooting: Ooh, big one. High goals are hard. Really hard. I think we learned that it may be beneficial to shoot low instead of high, simply for the higher success rate (substantially), and less time wasted on aiming/defenders blocking your way. I think low goals are the way to go, especially if you're going for a capture.
Thanks to Aces High for hosting Suffield Shakedown!
