I'm trying to find the sweet spot of my embouchure(Where it operates the most naturally and efficiently). Does anyone have any experience with this? If so how did you find it?

One of the best responses I have ever heard from a teacher, "blow and count you dumb $&@%!"
I realize it didn't exactly answer your question, although maybe it did

Good luck.

If you have a private teacher, ask him/her. If you don't, it's probably worth at least a few months of lessons to get this right.

Otherwise, try your long tones and slow slurs with a breath attack. Your entire playing system will find its sweet spot when the tongue isn't forcing the issue. And bloke is right. Don't fuss over it too much. Listen to the results.

He did have a way with words, didn't he? And he said much the same thing to me! Good advice then and good advice now.
