That's probably not something you should be too proud of.
Our forks pick up the ball very easily no matter where we are, provided we can get the ball in between them. It's hard to see the other side of the barrier.
We had some trouble with the balls rolling off to the sides. We fixed that by adding "mantis claws" -- two protrusions over the top of the ball. When we tip our forks back, the protrusions compress the ball a bit and keep it firmly in place. It works great.
