I believe after your first regional, you'll appreciate what BJC and artdutra are saying a little bit more. No offense, but they have a combined 14 years of FIRST experience. If you think 20ft is hard with a poof ball, you should of seen the teams doing it with a 12lb track ball in 2008....

The math from my team's calculations says a 20 foot shot requires a ball to be traveling at 30.008 ft per sec. and up to 60 feet it's 49.004 ft per second.
