    10 inch ultralite or 16 inch boomy

    10 inch ultralite or 16 inch boomy. I want less weight but dont want to sacrifice accuracy.

    Accuracy isn't dependent on Barrel length, so go with the one you're most comfortable with (14" is good for me )

      The main reason to go with a smaller barrel is to get around bunkers and to get a smaller profile. Larger barrels are just easier to sight down because they extend out further. Final answer: Depends on what position you intend on playing. If you are front player and need a smaller profile go with a smaller barrel, back player, get the longer one.

        With 14" you can play any postion with ease. You dont want a short barrel though cuz it is to hard to move airball bunkers with.

          If your a front guy, I'd shoot a 10" or a 12". If you're a mid guy, I'd shoot a 12" - 16" and a back guy I'd say shoot a 14" - 18".

          The only thing you get out of a longer barrel is a quieter shot, more barrel length to sight with and the ability to pull back air bunkers to shoot around them and stay concealed.

          Look at how you play and what you need and then make the choice.
