Just getting back in after an almost 15 year hiatus and am finding out that (I think) tourneys and fields now are limiting BPS to 10.5 shots per second? When did this become a thing and how? What impact has it had on the marker market? It would seem that there are mech markers that could do 10bps and even the original Shocker sports (shoeboxes - the first electros I remember) I believe did at least 10 bps. Has this hollowed out the market for new markers? Considering that first gen marker features (including eyes) have been around since circa 2001 (Bob Long Intimidator) what would be the value in newer markers?
Just curious!
Thanks,
