The Game Ball Consistency

Competition FRC Game Design

Hey ya’ll!!! I have a question mainly about the balls that we received in the kit. We are having some problems with shooting since one of the balls has a denser foam. We’re wondering if others received this denser ball so we can know if ours is either an anomaly or an actual large scale problem. This will be highly important for our choice of how we are going to shoot.

Thanks!

I’ve seen a couple threads. This one shows its a common problem

and this one attempt identify how much variance there is. It’s a lot.
