Why Donate?

While I do not expect very much revenue from this site, any donations will allow me to spend more time improving the scripts behind the calculator and digging more into the program code to find other useful info.

Other Game Info?

In the future I will spend more time digging into the xml data within the game code in order to provide other useful info besides the shot calculator.
