People tell me that a barrel over 14 inches is a waist. I would like to know why its a waist. Doesnt one over 14 inches add accuracy or distance or something?

It doesn't add anything except the ability to push aside inflatable bunkers a little better. It's a waste because it's just longer than it needs to be...it's bulky and can get in the way. 12" or 14" is the way to go.

anything bigger than 14 in. the friction starts to get to the ball making it slow down before exiting the barrel
i own a 16'' bunker pusher too!

Dont git over 14". Ive played people that thought they could snipe me with their big ole long barrels. After I painted them blue from like 45 yards away they basically stopped sniping me. Im not saying that they couldnt hit me if they tried really hard or am I saying I am better than them I am saying that since their barrels were so long the balls ket slowing down and couldnt hit me.

nevergoover 14 because the more barrel the more the chanse of a break and they slow the ball down

id stay below 16" but try not to go above 14" cause the longer the barrel the more force is needed to puch the ball out the barrel, and it will start to slow down enormously. but id go 16" just for some fun, but if your barrel is too long you can waste sooooooooooo much air it ain't funny.

I think a 14 inch is pretty long as is... But I'd love to show up with a 21 incher to see the looks on everybodies faces.

maybe a 16 inch like a twister is awsome.
16 inch is fine. I dont notice a difference between the two, but its bigger then 16 that i cut myself off. Like my captain using the same kit as me and he tore his acl so he has been out for awhile so he always lets me use his 16 if im playing a thick bunker.
