Real checkerplay problem

Obviously we want to leap out 22/17 with the 5 (since if we use the 5 to hit 6/1* we have no good 3) and would prefer to leave it there for lots of reasons - fewer tempo hits, more (some) returns, better outfield coverage. But all the other 3s have downsides - 8/5 breaks the 8 and leaves 2 additional blots, 6/3 uglies up the position, stacks and semi-burns a checker and 13/10 has problems too. I'm tempted to play 6/3 hoping to unstack and hit next time.

btw If the spare on the 3 were on the 8 I would play 8/5 without much hesitation (and 13/10 if spare were on the 13) but here dont want to give up the 8.
