On my ST premium while playing it seems that when I hit the drop target hard and dead on, some times it doesn't indicate a hit. But, when I tested it with the glass off it worked every time. Does anyone know if this is normal? Maybe it is registering, but the software doesn't play the "hit" sound so I'm assuming it's missing, but I'm not really sure.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Hmm... Mine is new and it's doing it.

Quoted from mpatricksp:

Mine does the same thing, has since day one. I have looked at it but haven't been able to see what is causing it. It seems to only be hard hits that cause the problem, any soft hit it seams to drop every time.

That describes it perfectly. I've looked at it but don't see how it possibly isn't working. The mechanism seems so simple to not work.

Quoted from Krakatoa:

Unhook the spring, stretch it slightly and reattach at the middle of the spring. So you end up hooking the middle part of the spring with about 20 or so spring coils hanging free.

To better understand,there is a picture of the "fix" on page 1 of this thread:

Thank you! That seemed to fix the problem. Works perfectly now.

I didn't get the blue spring with mine. When did you purchase your game? Maybe this is something new they are doing.
