Magnus effect + air resistance + microscopic finger asymmetries make a mathematically perfect spiral impossible. Brouwer's fixed-point theorem (1911) proves even ideal conditions would produce minute deviations. Nature favors controlled chaos over perfection.

"I'd be willing to be shot at by muskets if aimed at me" is a phrase that suggests they've got a ring shaped pattern, and probably worth testing. Doubly so if you could get a clear barrel for high speed footage.

Because it’s an oval shaped ball

I asked on YouTube to ask the same here What if we throw the ball in vacuum instead? Maybe all air resistance will become 0 and even no need to spin the ball and maybe observation will be completely different
