Wrong.....

Watch a Dynasty player or anyone who knows what they are doing, particularly in a couple of the NPPL dvds..... If there is no incoming threat then one can make use of the large field of view and excellent cover that a back lie-down can offer. A lot of inexperienced players don't make use of this possibility and are surprised when the other team does.

Yeah, I agree with you but at our level (beginner/ rookie), you don't see that too often as far as knowing what they are doing...
I've used this (over the top) from time to time but am very careful to duck when things get hot.
Most newbies don't know any better (snapshooting from the sides of the bunker) and often abuse the topside to the point they are easily taken out.
Thanks for the correction and should've been more specific in the comment. :D

if the back bunker is a lay down then its a dam good idea to shoot over the top. gives you total view and control of the field (providing you have large testicles)

head jug

most people just snap shoot and then get cyclopsed ,before you snap shoot you gotta have a very quick look then snap shoot when you feel safe to do so, i call it the head jug
