Now if you notice, for football season, they have uprights in the field of play.
Me and the boys played a bunch of different game modes, including Field Goal Challenge. Now, not everyone can hit the distance of the uprights 117 yards away. So they offer virtual distances.
I let the kids play all their 10 shots on 23 yards away.
I played the progressive at 5 distances, where it goes further back if you make a shot. I made the first 3 shots in a row, then it took me five attempts to make the 4th distance, something like 90ish yards. That left me with two attempts where for it to count it had to go through the physical uprights. Now the annoying thing was my 8th shot, actually went through the physical uprights. So that counted as a successful 4th distance, but did not also count as completing the full distance.

One thing to clear up: all my shots were clearing 117. What is tricky is that the angle gets so much narrower the further the uprights get pushed back.
Anyways so we moved on and played other modes, and then with 5 minutes to go, I was like I want to play field goal challenge again.
So I set it at the full distance from the beginning and took 10 shots and couldn't make any through.
Now I had 2 minutes left. One more round in me.
I missed the first 5 shots. Some left, some right. I know these next five are my last chance.
And then on #6, I could tell the moment it left my club, that it was going right through. With under one minute to go, I hit a buzzer beater.
