BARREL OR ROUND TIP?
You're here
BARREL
Fuller & Warmer
More surface contact, fuller drum tone, richer cymbal wash. More volume per hit. Perfect for live settings and drummers who need a bigger sound.
ROUND
Focused & Articulate
Precise, defined attack. Cleaner cymbal tone with less wash. Better for studio work and situations where tight articulation matters most.
GOT QUESTIONS?
Same 5B hickory body — the only difference is the tip shape. Barrel tips have a wider surface area that produces a fuller, warmer drum tone and richer cymbal wash. Round tips are smaller and more precise, giving you tighter articulation. For live settings where volume and warmth matter, barrel wins.
Slightly lighter actually — the 5B barrel comes in at 4.4 oz vs 4.9 oz for the round tip. The feel and balance remain very close to the standard 5B Long, with the main difference being the warmer, fuller sound from the larger tip.
Rock, gospel, worship, and any live setting where you need volume and warmth. Barrel tips fill a room better than round tips. If you need tight, articulate definition for studio work, go with round tips instead.

Hickory is the sweet spot — denser than maple so it doesn't snap under hard play, lighter than oak so it doesn't fatigue your wrists. Natural shock absorption means longer sessions with less strain, and every pair feels consistent.

All I can say is that the feel, the balance, there durability and the sound when playing is the best. I will not be using any other sticks from now on.
I used Woodies for the first time last night and all I gotta say is... WOW!!! I've been playing for 30 plus years and I can say these are the best sticks I've ever played with. I was shocked how good they felt in my hands. Very balanced well made sticks. Next show I'll definitely send a video.
I’m using Woodies sticks at a Christian conference I’m playing in and the response I’m getting is great. The balance, and feel is what you want in a stick. Love them.
Just damn good well balanced sticks! Tough ass Hell but does not feel tough if that makes sense ???
5 of the 6 pairs were between 58 and 60g each. Perfect for tossing 5 pairs into my gig bag. I mean who really only puts one pair in their bag. Not any gigging drummer I know. So, the 6th pair was only 54g each and noticeably lighter and not as straight. I had hoped to throw all 6 pairs in the bag, but the one pair didn’t make it. I hope, and have hoped for many many years, that stick makers would make sure when a customer orders 6 pair or 12 pairs, they are all in the same weight range. But 5 outta 6 ain’t bad. Love the sticks though. Best feeling sticks I’ve ever used, and I’m going on 40 plus years of drumming.
The only lasted 2 days.
Feel and weight is perfect for.
Im Dr. LuvBeatz I play in Touring Rock Reggea band TreeHouse! I love woodies cuz there so thick I dont have turn them around.
These have become my new favorite drumsticks. I’ve been using Pro Mark drumsticks my whole career. I usually throw my sticks into the crowd when I’m done, but I’ve become very stingy with my Woodies. I’m hooked.
Love em, strong sticks
I like the feel of them. But unfortunately they didn't last, received them May 18th, I play 1 to 2 days every weekend. Switching between these are your 7a nylon longs....just broke tonight with no warning. Price is a plus but other brand last longer.
Love them
Great sticks and amazing feel
Great Sticks!! WOODIES....5B 🔥
Love the Length!
The sticks feel great so far! I plan on getting more.
Just got my 5B Long Barrel Tips in the mail this weekend, and they are excellent. Great weight distribution across the entire stick, the overall weight is perfect (not too heavy, but a good amount of backbone), and the barrel tips deserve a chef's kiss.
First pair i gave out at the show.
Love the hat and the barrel tips like the round and nylon tips are amazing, durable, balanced and feel great in the hands
Just used on pad. Will be using them when i get back to my kit. In a couple of months
Best drum sticks I’ve ever used. They are now the only sticks I will use
Heavier than expected and more top heavy than in the handle.
Simply ….. Great sticks.
Great stick, and exactly the right length and width. Fits my hand and playing perfectly.
Tried them out for the first time at a show and had a pretty great time. Felt really good after switching from Japanese oak pro marks. So far, seems to be on par, and that's saying something
Yep sticks work great I used them already in one of our practice sessions I like the extended reach on them and the barrel tip I will probably buy some more eventually I recommend you guys to anybody
Great quality and balance.
Plays good they chip like other sticks but every stick does that. I play an hour a day and have had them for a week and are still good.
I had an issue with one stick in my original order, but the company was quickly responsive to send a replacement pair. Stuff happens, but good customer service is a big plus. Thanks
Woodies sticks are very durable and properly balanced every time!
Very different size on the sticks. They are very nice.
Great sticks
I really Like the sticks. The balance is good for being a heavier drum stick. Like them a lot.
Good feel while I’m playing and hard hitting
The sticks are nice…well balanced and seem to be wearing well. I’m impressed with the attack/crisp sound on the ride, wasn’t expecting that. I’ll be buying more in the future for sure
I love them
Loving these sticks! The barrel tip is nice and I am looking forward to seeing how they last.
