Zone hitting - reticle choice

So, I don't think I've seen an answer to this anywhere. Does the shape of the reticle you use for Zone hitting have any impact on the hit quality/difficulty? Obviously, the default is a massive oval, which gives you the impression of covering most of the strikezone, but the wedge seems to cover a much smaller area and implies a more specific sweet spot?

I tend to play with it off screen, so I only ever see it on the post-swing report, but wondered if anyone knew the answer!

I use the reticle which is the oval with just the sides showing. Never really tried the others since I hit great with the reticle. I know classic is the whole oval showing and it distracted me from reading the pitch so I immediately switched back to the reticle. lol

I'd bet money it's strictly a visual thing.
