I might just be imagining this, but it seems that I can nail the right ramp on my BSD every time, however the left ramp I get inconsistent results - it can miss wildly to the left, or to the right. The flippers have been rebuilt, and both have lots of power. Is it just my skills, or might there be something more to this?

I'm right handed but left footed. Maybe this reveals that my left hand is my dominant hand!

Since I received your answers above I am now nailing the left ramp more regularly. So limiting self belief is definitely one of the factors.

Ah, that's what it was, a ball hop so subtle you can hardly see it, just as the ball hits the end of the flipper. Thx Stevevt
