Does it come with instructions?

1. Don’t spin the ball while you’re walking in because you might mix up the arrow and the kick zone
2..

Probably only needs a few basic rules

I wonder if the league will let us swap balls for our set shots ?

I said in the match thread… it was quite funny to see Ben Long twirl the ball ala Max during his set shots… 2 of which he butchered and third didn’t make the distance

I also mentioned Bens hook shot miss from 35m out nearly dead in front when discussing our (lack of ) trained set shot routine on some other thread -

I was yelling at him ( on the Telly) as if he was still a saints player missing - that’s how frustrated I am with the way we go about it

Yep.
Max. When you are 25m direct out in front. What is the optimum number of spins and swirls for the ball.
Should the ball be held on a 75 degree angle to the left or right?
Does it change if you are 35m out?
I know it changes when you are 40m out and further as the spins and swirls disappear.

Just curious.
