  Looks great. You could push the spacing of the first one and see what kind do result you get. Feels good, though.
  
  Second one, I would have the ball roll more before coming to a stop.
  
  Third one, I would have more squash on f11. 
  
  f57, I would push more so there is more of a squash and settle. A little bounce.
  
  Overall, your stuff is solid, I think you can move on.

  Hi. Thank you very much for your feedback.
  
  Here's an updated version with your suggestions regarding ball with a tail and I think that it indeed looks better!
  
  Cheers!

  Hi again.
  
  A friend of mine gave me very detailed feedback on my animations and I decided to update them here as well. Maybe someone will find this progress helpfull. That's how it looks now. As always, any thoughts appreciated.

  I left some notes and tried to be precise with the critique... The biggest issue is, it looks like you got into the ball with the tail first, and were fresh on the animation principles, but when you got to the other two, you started losing principles here and there... With any animation, there is a tinge of squash and stretch, hence why it's a principle of animation. With your heavy ball and soccer ball, you lost all squashing and stretching and the arcs could be better. If you just have a ball dropping without those principles, you might as well just put the ball at the top of the scene, put gravity in maya and let it animate for you
