plinkin' away the day..

it ain't no OPFS, but I tried to practice with as short o fork as possible today... cut out all the yucky stuff (there was lots) but hey, I had no slingshot . but now I look a lot cooler than I am.. see?

thats one of those cool marble smash pictures,, anyway, I got me a few marbles and even a quarter,,and laughed hard at myself remembering @Dgui missing that tenth quarter ,, poor guy

 

Cinematic excellence.
Nice shooting.

 

Nice video and shooting Monsieur. Nice landscape I think I'm moving to Canada I like the land.

 

Great shooting. Looks like an awesome day.

 

well, I do live in the least picturesque and beautiful part of Canada. But There is no lack of Scenery and many little critters to be eaten.. I could always use a hunting buddy. however beautiful it seems here though, 4 or 5 months of the year the weather itself wants to kill you and tries hard..

 

it WAS a fun day, though the frustration of trying to smack that quarter without losing it was immense. my hat's off to guys like Joey and Darrell who shoot small aerials regularly. it's not a difficult aspect to learn, and I do a bit better with a frame, but if you can manage this your target aquisition and fast-twitch reflexes increase exponentially in other areas of shooting.. also drinking that beer made my stomach rotten and I took today off work. stupid gluten...

 

A level of cold I'm not used to I'm sure.. But the coyote is adaptable and its what has made it endure despite all odds..

 

Hey nice plinkin day ...good for you man..as for me..I will keep the tubes on a frame..quarter in my pocket..cuz I could not see it in the air anyway(tired ole eyes)...Hell as for the long distance
can walk(forget it)..I am lucky too see the can at 1 meter any way...let alone hit it..
I still plink away tho every day.....Better for me to hit the road on the Harley with sling in my back Pocket of bib's......Happy day's my friend....yahoooooooooo

smart call, bring two coyote coats! we will welcome you good sir!

 

fair nuff Roger, I still like my frames the best but this is just an outlet to learn them better,.. I don't usually shoot at long distances either, but I figured since I was trying to put a little video together, why not? you may have noticed the camera change once I nicked it, I tried another 20 or so shots before I got too greedy about my ammo and gave up..

 

Oh I have tried Bareback with tube's(hand use for frame) Man I just can't do it..poor release
smacking my hand..Oh how I have tried & tried..Guess it is not ment to be with me...I do admire
you & those guys that can do this..less to carry in your pocket...Just a band or tube set....
Well Pie...Maybe just 1 more time with tin foil balls.....I did like your fun time video tho...
in the long run tho being 73 yrs old..I should stay with want works for me..I have fun shooting
Looking forward to more video's from you my friend....Just glad you had a great day..

thanks brother, don't shoot your hand even with those tin foils. they can hurt some good too!

 

Last summer I thought I'd try to do some instinctive aerial shooting using chick peas, figuring that I couldn't do much damage to myself... wrong. Skinned the back of my hand pretty good. More practice (and a glove) required...

 

Love the bareback. Barking Squirrel? Huh. That's what I tell my wife when I accidentally fart outside. No wonder the foul stomach.

 

Thoroughly enjoyed this video.
Made my day. Oh and I shoot better after having a King Can.

 

A foul gutt is better than a foul snatch. Watch Out !!!

yeah, I wish I could impart some wisdom, I'd say twist, but I don't, and ya can't tweak what ya didn't twist...

 

yeah, I only bought it for the name,, I wouldn't have known better anyway, I'm not supposed to drink beer... and I'll take a foul snapper every now and again over the gut problems...
