Man,  I would have thought that that tarp was awfully small.  But you actually hit the pumpkin.   

Keep up the great work.

Yes siry! right through the forehead! Nice shot. Did yiu use one of the clay glannds? How far was the shot. Did the pumkin get any shots off before you nailed him?

I was 15 yards back and I didn't use my glands. I used a 4oz rock a little smaller than an egg.  It's in my left hand in the picture.  It looks white because I marked it with paint. 

The excitement from trying to hit Goliath, having an audience, varying rocks, and a waterlogged backyard, threw my aim off!  I couldn't come close for quite a few throws.

But then I calmed down and started following my own rules and ignoring the water and audience.  From there I hit him in just a few good throws.  This sport takes relaxation!

The hole in the shot was my first hit and only hit on him!  I was hoping for a good shot instead of just nicking the sides or something.  And I got it!  Right in the forehead! Next I want to try watermelon!

I'll be having more fun with Goliath today.

I'm 24.  AOL distored my face by downgrading the picture quality there.  Ben

I remember being 24:

Full head of hair, 30 lbs lighter, no pain in the joints.

10 years does a lot to a guy!

The net is actually at my feet in the picture.  Not much to look at, just standard net looking.  It's tuff stuff, but not very thick.  It does the job when put behind the tarp.  Not too many more holes in the tarp now.
