This might work better on the squirrels than the ol' Daisy. What do you think George?

That was awesome

but it only is good for 40 yards? I thought crossbows were more powerful then bows and I used to shoot my bow 40 yards accurately. I bet it would be good for catching fish in the Caribbean.

You could get rid of those

pesky jetskis and loud dingies. Just take the pointy sharp head off the arrow and put a big fat blunt one. Kinda like punching them from 40 yards. You would get there attention at least. Don't forget to make several. If you are successful with the first one you will probably need more.

Jetskis and Dingies

I would like to use it on 40 to 50 foot power boats. I went out sailing this last week end. Was in a channel in the gulf island of BC. The channel is about 2-3 miles across. I did mean sailing, I was too stubborn to start the motor . . . the winds were so light and would shift 160 degrees. I would throw pieces of bread over the side to see if I was moving or not. Then about every 20 minutes a large power boat would approch doing at least 15 knots. The boat would change course and pass about 100 feet away then cut across the bow. the resulting wake would cause my boat to turn crossways in his wake because I had so little speed the rudder was not very effective. I do not know why power boaters always feel the need to pass close by when there is lots of sea room. Was really tempted to bring up the flare pistol and shoot it at them.
