    What pinball machines have your favorite or most satisfying spinner shots, jet bumper hits and scoop shots?

    Personally I love the feel of the center spinner shot on MB, it’s silky smooth.

    KISS has my favorite jet bumpers, those 4 really knock the snot out of the ball.

    AFM has my favorite scoop shot, ball doesn’t bounce out half the time like going for Merlins Magic in MM.

    My favorite spinners, probably a tie between High Speed and Blackout.

    Jet bumper hits. There are so many. Really like the ones in AC/DC.

    Scoop shots? I'm not sure. Maybe the rats hole in BSD. Or also in BSD, hitting the Renfield shot and slamming him in the bars.

    Whirlwind for the win! It has them all, plus two ramps

    I like a well adjusted bumper so that could be on a number of different games. Some games that aren’t adjusted well is such a pot of cold water when it rolls in the pop region and you only get one or two strong bumps then rolls into the third and....nothing happens.

    That’s one I’ve never played before, now I’m curious to check it out

    Good call AC/DC’s jet bumpers really thump!

    I'm a spinner junkie.
    Prospector....2 satisfying spinners. Really spins the EM score reels
    Bow and Arrow... 2 rippable spinners and jacks bonus up
    F2K...2 spinners with a sweepable bank of drops behind
    right spinner.
    Flash has an awesome spinner and newly
    rebuilt pops are very lively.

    Own all of the above so I'm biased.
    Just bought a meteor project and have
    never played so looking forward to it.

    Beatles spinners are pretty darn fun to rip.

    The spinner shot on my Bally Hang Glider is so satisfying. Especially when it's lit for 1K per spin which is rare that way I have it set up.

    Maiden. All of the above!
    Nothing beats fear of the dark mode doubled up spinner rope 2 or 3x playfield running. 40spins makes the score sail!

    Pops: The Shadow.

    Spinner: Sorcerer, when you stack it all up it just feels good to rip that thing.

    Scoop: Theatre of Magic cellar shot.

    My favorite scoop is on Heist when you have to try and hit the moving scoop as it crosses the playfield.
