  4. Does using booster on medium-sponge mess up the throw angle?

    I've had several medium or medium-soft rubbers that seem to have a slightly low or uncomfortable throw angle. The common point being that I had boosted all of them. I can't remember for sure whether they had this throw angle before I boosted, but at the very least, I wasn't conscious of the...
