Hmmm... does it still count as the pendulum challenge if the slinger is swinging instead of the target?

I love the slow motion destruction part. The stretched out sound of the impacts had a strangely relaxing effect. Similar to a thunder storm. Great video!

Here’s a preview of my nail challenge entry. My wife found a portable soccer/tennis net for $12 today at the store. Since I finally had a rock-worthy backstop, and since it was a nice overcast day for shooting video, I made a real attempt at the nail challenge. The rocks were fairly large, and I think I got the edge of the nail from 10 yds (Hit 1), and I might've grazed it again with one shot from 7yds (Hit 2). I will need to look more closely at the video.
The mud on the end of the nail is because the target kept falling forward into the mud.
Video coming... eventually
