Joe, some of the articles talk about using wet tennis balls but nearly 
all of them say to keep the weight of the ball down to 8oz or iow, 
empty to reduce stress on the pvc.

tell me about your cannon's materials and how is it that it likes 
heavy balls???

also, attaching line to your ball and to your cannon... do you use a 
fishing reel or one of those zip reels that goes around the muzzle?

thanks
