AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
I use a freak on my cocker.I have actually noticed my accuracy decrease using a 14" tip vs. the 10" tip.
The only advantage I notice for the length is that it is quieter.
Concerning barrel length it comes down to preference and style of play, I think. I have seen some wicked 'ballers up front playing with 18 inch barrels and taking down just about anyone they come up against. For me a sixteen works well (mid-front) because, like so many others have said, it allows you to push the barrel into the bunker and this exposes less of you/marker. I also have played against and with Element (am A team) and they tend to stand away from their bunkers a couple of feet (unless they're forced to stick tight) and snap shoot without worrying about the bunker obstructing movement. but even so they still use 12-16 inch barrels.
My biggest gripe with the short barrels is that you expose yourself more to get a shot, if your playing tight.
