Today I was shooting my HEAVY ARTILLERY Gun (yes, the crappy metal thing) with its New GOLF BALL BARREL! (Yes thats right, SDR21) and In my yard at 150psi It shot 3 streets away... Now this is not the serious bit, but the serious bit is what it hit. I live 3 streets away from my school and there was a Police car parked outside the school (Dont know why???) anyway The Golf Ball seemed intent to sail down Just Outside My school...

Bye Bye police car...

It made a huge "dint" In the side of there vigilante wagon. I was scared stiff that I was goin to be arrested. Not only because Of damage to a police vehicle, Possesition of several illegal weapons But also because of what I was eating! (Ask Gort)





Dont shoot Golf Balls Up!

I've shot golfballs up before...

They traveled a few football fields and wound up in the general vicinity of a creek bed, though.

Sorry, that mark doesnt really look consistent with a GB impact... Not to mention, where would the black come from? Am I missing something?

I agree with pimp, that doesn't look like a GB mark.

it looks too big for a GB and then GBs arnt black and unless it hit the car side on wouldnt there be a dent instead of that "scuff" mark.

Yeah. I think this may be "coincidence".

Police cars travel all the time. All it takes is a shredded tire to do something like that.

Don't worry... yet! :evil:

The picture is a proffesional photo...and the damage is NOT done with a golfball.
Maybe he just added the picture to spice up the story, to give us something to look at..

Considering the car in that pic isn't even a "vintage wagon"...

What the??? No I didnt take that photo, But thats what it looked like. I didnt have the camera on me. I got that from google images on a "dent" site. Im sorry for any confusion. :oops:
And brian is exactly right, If it didnt have a photo I thought no-one would believe me, Whether the pic is of what I was talking about has nothing to do with it. Its princaple.
It was really only for something to look at.
