    If I'm having to play way outside in zone 1 then the first or second board is my sweet spot
    and if I'm playing inside in zone 2 then it is the 8th board for me but when I have to play
    super deep in zone 3 then the sweet spot for me is board 12 or 13.

    haven't answered the question myself.. haven't tried zone 1 before.. for zone 2, my sweet spot is the 7th board.. for zone 3, usually it's the 13th board..

    Zone 1, the 1 board. I like it because it trips people out when the ball goes almost half in the gutter and comes back. Zone2, 7 board. Zone 3, 11 board.
