Re: Throwing Orbit Balls

Short and medium range may be all you want - If you're throwing all the way down the field it gives robots time to move out of the way, turn, etc. I'm not sure how fast it can be done given this years surface, but it is something to consider.

Seeing other peoples comments I would suggest going basketball style due to the accuracy for shorter shots.
