Hopefully you can see the picture I tried to attach, but this is a statement to how difficult it has been for me to pare down my supplies for a lighter camping trip.
This is a three feet long golf ball cannon (painted Chicago Bears colors of course) that fires golf balls using black powder. It's louder than a .45 and no one has ever seen or recovered any of the golf balls. It's like looking at a gunshot.
We shot one of the golf balls at point blank range through a 1" thick piece of plywood, and it made a hole that looked like it was cut by a laser. The whole mess cost around $50 including powder and golf balls. A great investment. Where I live this unit falls under the black powder firearms laws ,and is only illegal if used in any manner that a regular gun would be illegally used.
This has nothing to do with survival, but I wanted to share a cool picture with all of you. I hope you dig it!
