My take on it is that any one can attempt the challenges
Of corse we can just go by word of mouth but I think video footage will be the most enjoyable for other members . Should be new footage not old.

A lot of these challenges leave it open to try 1000s of times with the video camera running.

Maybe leave the board open to new challenges. Like the human body shots . Hit a frizbee in flight

And maybe have all submissions by Christmas and a little secret Santa for the participants. Sling trading

Just some ideas again.

If time permits I would like to get a video up if at all possible. I wouldn't mind taking a few shots at a soda can or something. Looking forward to seeing other peoples videos.

Any feat where a sling is used to hit a can . It really would make for the best highlight reel!!

I must say I had over 100 shots (guessing) and only 7 hits. 5 direct and 2 glancing. Gonna be harder than I thought. Going from the 50cm disk to a can.
