Anyone else have an issue with their ball slipping past the post? Ours inconsistently slips around the post but often enough that it disrupts play. Included is a picture showing what is going on. We can't seem to figure out what adjustment is needed to make it stay where it is supposed to. Appreciate any feedback!

i would try adjusting the position of the drop hole. Just loosen the nut and play around with the wire to find where it drops cleanly, then tighten it down there.

The wireform where it drops from is usually the cause of this. Make sure the ball is coming out of it to the left. It looks like the hole is leaning slightly to the right in this picture. Often what you have to do is *twist* the wireform slightly (counterclockwise from the player's point of view) so that the ball will come out of the left side of the hole. Also, a slight right-to-left lean of the back legs can help too.

And just loosening the screws and moving the ramp a little to the left
