geordie1234 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Posted April 25, 2016 I always seem to get a bad toss from a new liberation point so I just go to the same one everytime now...seems if they get hit they just power on..also they don't hang about when released either. I feel when they hang about that's when your most likely to be hit. Also something I do aswell now from every single toss is I do not leave them for a few minutes to get there bearings... Even the babies first ever toss... My basket is wrapped up in an old curtain in the boot of the car (to stop mess) I lift them out and open the flap instantly..I think this learns them to orientate quicker.. I maybe wrong but it seems to be working a bit better for me at the moment...but I do get hit sometimes Hope they work in mate keep at it
