FT was my first and only pin for several years. It's a favorite of guests and still kicks my butt after all these years.

Quoted from Dewey68:Whysnow said:I think I need to spend more time with FT as I currently do not think it is anything special.
It's at its best when you get several modes going at once, monster fish, feeding frenzy, rock the boat, any of those and a jackpot thrown in and that's when it shines.
Interesting comment. I'd say if you're into stacking modes, FT is not your game. There are many better ones out there for that.
Quoted from Dewey68:mickthepin said:Think you will like it. After you get it the long quest for super jackpots begins. It can take months to get there.
I have had mine about 3 months now I'd guess, and I hit the super jackpot on the 4th day I had it. I'm not bragging, because I haven't come close to it since and when I hit it I had the lightning flippers still on it. Since then I put green flipper bats with yellow rubber on it. I think it looks better, but it doesn't seem to play any easier!
It's a fun game, but if you are off it can punish you!
It took me 5 years. You should brag!
Quoted from tomdotcom:If you have the ball on the right flipper, then post pass over to the left to make the lock shot. I also try and drop catch or live catch the first initial plunge with the left flipper, then shoot the lock.
I can backhand the lock shot off the right flipper on mine. Got Master of Salt Water Fishing the other night and then SDTM drained trying to hit the captive ball, PMO!
Playing other pins where multiballs are more easily obtained has actually made me much better at FT. I think I could actually kick its ass now if I put some time in.
