Leo Sayer 3,624 Posted April 27 Author Report Share Posted April 27 Bit of target practice in the sun on Wayne . Also made some targets out of sauce bottles from work and spray foam. Got idea of YouTube, you put rope on them and swing them round and launch em. Shoot pic up and throw again. Snap shooting at random distances. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
