Big Buck Hunter Pro pinball rules and strategy
The Strategy
Elk Multiball is the easiest entry point and can later run with Bird Multiball. Spell E-L-K through the inlanes or left orbit, then collect the left-orbit hurry-up. During Elk Multiball, shoot the bird lane four times to add Bird Multiball and hit the ram kicker three times for 2x; Pappy's Porch usually gives add-a-ball and a short ball save.
The goal
Start Elk Multiball at the left orbit, then add Bird Multiball at the bird lane. Shoot the ram kicker three times for 2x scoring; during Multiball, Pappy's Porch usually gives an add-a-ball and a short ball save.
