This is very tricky to do from a standstill ball from the left flipper, and risky too because if you overshoot to the right it will surely drain after some ricochets in the sling area. Getting a sure shot towards the right orbit depends on the middle ramp when it's lit for roll'n win. Shoot it and the ball will get trapped on the right ramp. If you don't select multiball, the right ramp will feed the right inlane. Keep the right flipper up for a passive flipper pass and let the ball bounce once on the tip of the lowered left fipper. Immediately shoot the ball and with a little bit of practice it will sail into the right orbit. This works best with Hi-Lo & Poker lit, preferably with one or two cheat games active. This strategy will get harder because it takes progressively more shots to the lit Roll 'n Win target to light the middle ramp again. The shot is mastered quite easy though and I haven't found any other repeatable shot to the right orbit. Another trick to get to the right orbit but now in multiball situations is to trap 2 balls on the left flipper, let them roll a short distance and then flip, chance is that the rightmost ball heads for the right orbit, getting a bit of a push from the left ball. This will help to get the corresponding jackpots. Suffice to say that this is a bit harder <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />As for other advice, do a lot of dead flipper passes to get control of the ball. If a ball just rolls over the tip of an upright flipper, it's saved easily by a slight tip shot of the other flipper, getting easy inlane passes. Don't trust the middle pin in the STDM area, it hasn't saved many balls for me, I prefer to nudge. When I think of more, I'll post againSlam23</blockquote>
