OK, I must admit that I was disappointed with the post itself after reading the title. I believe you are referring to a 'pea' shooter; slang term for a small bore instrument which one could shoot 'peas' through. When I saw 'pee' shooter, I was pretty curious what this had to do with tubas.

Anyways, I'd say lug the Yamaha home. I do some work with a high school that only has 3/4 size Yamahas and these big guys that play them are always overblowing them. The director keeps asking for more, but the big, warm sound that the group needs goes totally out the window with the edgyness of the tubas.

It's always best to play as much as you can on the best horn available. If the only thing keeping you from taking your Yamaha home is conveinience, then I would put forth the extra effort.
