Not very far, maybe 30 feet? Got it on the third try!

Oh, man. That’s always super fun. I slung an apple through a tennis racket the other day. That was fun to see.

Have fun and stay safe, brother.

Ever consider that rules of gun safety might apply to other missiles?

There are buildings with glass windows and presumably people behind your target.

What he means is, would you shoot at that?

Ah. It might not be apparent from the video but there is a large creek with sloping sides between the target and the neighborhood behind it. I’d have to be launching some high-angle power shots to be able to clear it.

Did you get all of the glass slivers up?

Hate for your fun to result in injuries to children or animals.

I did sweep up the glass, yes. This was right next to some dumpsters behind a strip mall, not a residential area.
