The ridge in the background is approximately 1,000 yards from the mortar, and we were landing the bowling balls at the top of the ridge. This video was one of the first, and we were still using lighter loads that we used a bit later!
A miscellaneous collection of shooting, fishing, ranting, whining, sniveling, and anything else I happen to get wound up over at the moment. Hopefully this will be more effective and cheaper than therapy. Excluding shooting and fishing, of course, as there is no finer therapy than that............

Bowling Ball Mortar at GBR-VIII #2
Here's another video. I couldn't see the ball in flight through the viewfinder, but got a bit lucky. In the original you can see it clearly. Be sure to turn up the sound and make it full screen to appreciate it best!

Thank you for posting. Mr True Blue Sam and I are so glad to finally see some of the activities from GBR. Would have loved to have been there.
