To address the issue at hand, I hit the yellow spot targets on the right consistently in an indirect and round about way.  But the important thing is that I consistently hit them.Usually when I start a game I go for the BLACK HOLE drop targets, this is what I am concentrating on, but in that process, I also grab every opportunity possible to nail the yellow drops.  So if the ball is coming down the table and is close to the yellow targets, I nudge the ball into them.  For hitting the top three yellow drop down targets, its fairly easy to nail them with the nudge method I mentioned and left upper flipper and lower left flipper.  It is the bottom yellow target that is an issue.  Mostly I nail it when the ball is heading directly down the table in line with and very close to the yellow drops, and just before it goes down between the right triangular bumper and metal rail, I nudge the ball to hit the lowest yellow drop.Note that it can be nailed directly with the lower left or upper left flippers but it is such a difficult shot, that when I do hit it it is considered more luck than skill to me because I can not do it consistently and usually miss the shot.There is one other way to nail that lower yellow drop and if you could figure out how to make this shot happen in a consistent way, then it would be the most consistent of all shots.  It is a reverse shot in which the ball leaves the right flipper, moves to the left flipper, goes behind the left flipper, travels between the left triangular bumper and metal rail, exits the top of that lane, crosses from the left to the right side of the table, and BAMB!  nails the lowest yellow drop.One interesting thing to note is that I consistantly spelled consistently incorrect every time I used the word in this post and we have spell check for thank for it being corrected now ... hehe</blockquote>
