02You only throw the catcher.Grab the center catcher and pull to prepare, even before the ball launches. Hold your pull, then release after Buddy throws. Pull opposite the direction you want to throw. Pull farther for more power and sideways to aim. The flat ball pops 2.5–4 seconds after launch. Watch for a gentle tremble that builds into a stronger shake before it pops.
✓Catch the perfect moment.Land near the center and the ball settles into the funnel. A hit on the outer rim bounces out. Side hits knock the ball away, even after it has bounced. Return your pull to its starting point to cancel.
