SWEET BLOWGUN!!
Sep 14th, 2005 at 10:23pm
 
Hey guys,

I was fiddling around with some paper and ducktape and just for fun decided to make a blowgun. Little did i know what the results of this would be. I coated the paper with duck tape and wrapped it up to about .80 calibre. It's about 11-12 inches in length.

I took a pencil, and put an about .75 calibre cone on it. With all the power in my lungs, which isn't much  Undecided  ,
I sent the dart 30 feet. Now, the range isn't great, but the accuracy is like a rifle!!! Here in Wyoming, you can get just half a dozen feet away from rabbits, so i can hunt on my own land! There are thousands of rabbits on our 7 acres!!

If somebody can tell me how, I'll post a few pics.  Grin

Get accurate. Shoot for a double lung and heart shot. Not very big on a rabbit so i would think you would either need to be really good or really close. They have darts now with broaded head on them. They would proably be the best.

If you want to post pictures, mail them to Chris, see the info button above, and he will tell you haw to add them to your posts.
If you do have your own website, there are ways around it, if so, go to one of the posts with a picture, click on quote and copy with your own url. (If you do have your own website, you will know how to do that.)
