Default Ideal Speed?

Just curious what everyones thoughts are on the speed of their ammo of choice. I have been shooting loads at about 1500 FPS (Heavy Metal) this season and I am not too concerned with speed to be honest. I was on a field goose hunt last monday though and was in a pit blind with some buddies that like using the fastest stuff they can get and others that simply don't care about all the hype of these speed loads. One buddy was shooting Spectra Shot, which were pretty cool and caught my eye. I think I would like to try these out this summer and going into next season. It has colored pellets to accurately see who killed what bird if the argument ever comes up...which in our cases ALWAYS comes up when arguing over who shot the Banded bird haha. These loads are offered in 3" #2's at 1400FPS and they will also be making and releasing a Goose load at 3 1/2" BB's this summer. Just curious how many people are all about the speed hype and what is the most preferred velocity ammo. Thanks!!!
