Re: Autonomous High Goal goes In and Out

It's happened to us at least 10 times so far this season. We've seen about equal amounts of in the front/out the side and in one side/out the other. Maybe once or twice the chains threw it back out the front of the goal.

It's frustrating, but our shot is hard and nearly horizontal when it enters the goal, with only a slight backspin.

Re: Autonomous High Goal goes In and Out

Team 3044 has had this happen numerous times. Our shot is a fast and straight. It'll also happen in tele from the front or the side. If we hit the angle just right from a side shot, the boulder will bounce off the chains and fly perfectly out the other side.

In one of our matches at RIt we hit 7 high goal shots but one didn't count as it bounced off the chains
