Any ideas for a cannon to shoot a 4" plus diameter ball of water 10'. I would like this ball of water to land in a small water feature pond by our house. I was thinking about using an air piston concept. I do have an existing pump supplying 1000 gph approx

A VERY low pressure water balloon launcher.
Pessimist: These blasters hold no water
Optimist: But their small output means they last just as long
Marketing: Huge blasts of water!
user: I shot it at an angle and it went a whole ten feet!
