Dale hit the nail on the head, you'd be surprised what you can do on a somewhat broken down condition with straighter angles through the heads...now granted, when the heads are fried, a stronger-coverstock ball like the Resurgence will burn up real quick no matter what your angles or coverstock surface are, so perhaps something with a little less surface and a weaker cover would help with the house with the uncomfortable ball returns.
Also, as i'm sure you've seen Robert Smith and others do, people will stand up in front of the ball return when they have to get inside of 5th, 6th, and even 7th arrow, just make sure you have enough loft to get it over the gutter
