Cow Patties......(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-sealed.gif)
Makes a definite PLOP, both when originally dropped, and hit.
Ok, I know its sick but its fun. Also a great way to test the destruction a pellet causes.
Don't act all innocent here, you know you have all done it...
No pics posted.

Not me. No way. Never ever ever have I shot a cow patty. Well.......... OK. I admit it.
Fresh ones are the best!!! HUGE splat and makes a nice cone shaped hole.
-
Oh my... I hope I'm not interrupting but as a small child wandering the pastures of northern Kansas I too was guilty of playing a role in the cow pie conspiracy. There was nothing better than a half-dried poo pie up against my pump-up Sheridan and that gun and I were a team.
Only in these later years have I discovered a whole new dimension in prairie fire...
ANT HILLS!!!
Whole civilizations DESTROYED in a matter of minutes!!!

LOL, from your description, I KNOW you are a pro at shooting Poo.
-
Aye...tha hairy koo pies are grrrrand wee targets.
-
For safety sake, don't shoot wet ones too close without proper protection.
-
You guys are in atarget rich environment. haha It's a cheap shot I know, but I lost control.
-
How about we just shoot the flies off the fresh drops ? You take the blues, I get the greens....
-
When I was a kid I'd shoot 'em at my cousins house.
Fresh or semi fresh dog crap works too.
-
Yes Troy, that too! hahaha...many hours of micro- pest control as a kid. And I hadn't remembered that in a long time...let's see...flies on poo, japaneese beetles off the roses (without hitting the flower), yellow jackets and ground hornets off dead meat ( headshots if possible!), carpenter bees on the wing! How many pounds of BB's did you shoot? Shooting has to be fun, and sometimes you learn somthing anyway!
-
I like shooting bumble bees with my cheap w-mart airsoft pistol. looks like a Tarsus.
-
Grasshoppers and crickets with a Daisy 15XT. Now there's a pistol that will teach you trigger control! :)
-
Tea spoons at 20 and 30 yards. Sometimes I'll try to shoot off the nozzles on empty spray-paint cans at the same distances. Off-Handed of course!!!!!tjk

Well Guys,
I guess that we agreed on organic targets for our postal shoot ! Now we need to decide on the size of the target, and just what constitutes scoring on it ?
If we go for the cow pie,I would appreciatesomeone sending me a few, as they are not available locally :(
So which Organic targets, are we going to use, and who is scoring them, I recomend someone with experience!
And will we need to record the sounds of our hits ? It seems that the "PLOP" may be important to scoring ?
-
You're onto somthing there Bill...what is needed is a parabolic mike on the tri-rail to record the 'organic' sounds in all their glory. Slowed way down on the play back...PUHLOOORRUPPPUH !
Or even the teensy little voice, screaming..."Bob!...Bob!...Speak to me!!"
-
I don't know what possessed me to start this post but I'm so glad I did.
I get a gut laugh when I read all the replies. My wife just looks at me with that,
"you retard" look. Then that even makes me laugh harder.
I guess I have a low thrill rate.
PUHLOOORRUPPPUH ! I can see the funnel in the Poo Pie now.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)

Well I got a big black lab that can hold her own with targets.
By the way, I watched my wife learn a valuable lesson during a recent, and rare, snow storm. NEVER randomly scoop up snow for a snowman in the backyard where a big black lab lives!!

I'm guessin' "Fudge Swirl" ????
