If I get a chance to go to the summer cottage, it will be possible to break pretty huge chunks of lake ice which would be fun. Best time for that though would be January our February.

why not have a prize ?

I'll put up a 60x30 glande mould, including postage (could take a while I've just discovered you can still send stuff overland Smiley

Most spectacular pumpkin smash wins.
Not most hits or furthest distance - but biggest hit.
I want to see blood and brains exploding out the back of the skull !
That is: seeds and pul and rind, from the back of the pumpkin Smiley

My advice: Use big rocks Thumbs Up

Rules:
Video must show you and the pumpkin or be videoed from where you stand.  
Standing 2 feet from the pumpkin won't count. At least 10 metres from the pumpkin is required.
If you can have a second camera behind the pumpkin - that would work in your favour Smiley

Jaegoor is not eligible for the prize. I mean, come on he's just too good at this kind of thing Wink




Hope the offer of a prize still stands?

Not trying to sneak the victory from Mersa but I didn't want him to go uncontested either! And it gave me a good excuse to get back into slinging. Enjoy!

Had about a 20% hit rate, one shot with the "perfect rock" went the whole way through. Good to get back into it.

Nothing like a pumpkin snuff video to get you ready for the holiday season. Well done Dan. I love it.

I love Dan's video too but I think Mersa is a deserving winner also. How about we call it a tie and give them both a gold medal? Wink

I really like them both as well. It's hard to choose. Maybe one person gets the top of the mould and the other the bottom.  Grin.

Seriously though really good videos from both guys. Well done!

Good slinging all round. Next year I'll be more prepared and hopefully will have more time.
