TGJB -

How do you handle things like the half-turn coming out of the chute in the Monmouth?

We have a formula for some of the chutes (like the Belmont ones, where I think we use 2/3 and 1/3, from memory), but really, the ground loss is very slight once you work it out. The difference between having BB 3/2 and 2 on a FULL turn is 1/4 point.
