Re: Trajectory B/C
basically yes from what I can see

the PVC pipe is muh wider and it has more metal components than yours
I don't see bungee shords on yours either

The bungie cords are black and blend in with the duct tape, this is from when we could use any hollow pliable ball we wanted, we used a handball.fmtiger124 wrote:basically yes from what I can see

We can adjust the hieght also, with the board on the bottom that comes out and can slide into holes in the base.

Re: Trajectory B/C
our height adjusts by taking the PVC and it moves up and down and a metal dowel is slid into the correct slot on a frame and into the PVC to hold it upstarpug wrote:The bungie cords are black and blend in with the duct tape, this is from when we could use any hollow pliable ball we wanted, we used a handball.fmtiger124 wrote:basically yes from what I can see

Re: Trajectory B/C
Is anyone here not using a bungee or medical tubing? I'm interested if other materials can get better inter-shot consistency.
