Hi all,

I have a Comet and I find that the corkscrew ramp shot is hard to make. The ball often has just a little bit less momentum than it needs to get up the ramp. I did replace the coil sleeves and made sure my flipper was "tuned up" and the EOS was on point. It did help a little, but it still seems like I need a touch more power to make this shot more consistently. Maybe I should lessen the tilt a touch?

My question is if this is normal. Should a shot need to be 100% perfect to make it all the way up the corkscrew ramp?

What do you guys think?

Got it, Make my flipper stronger. It seems like it just needs a little more umph. Am I right in thinking that cleaning the EOS and Cab switch should be as good as replacing them? Also I thought replacing coils was not usually needed.

Anyway, thank you for the input. I will make my flipper stronger.
