Fire In The Hole

I saw on social media that the local orchard would have pumpkin-chunker Tim McGrath's world class pumpkin cannon, Chunkin Up at the orchard today for some target practice. Thought it might be fun to see and grab a couple photos. My husband even decided to join me. I think he had fun pulling the lever to fire the cannon. This is normally done with pumpkins but it's not October yet so cantaloupes it is....

Love that you caught Bob in action and the cantaloupe in mid air!

Great shot but I love cantaloupes and hate to see them mistreated like this.

Looks like fun. I like your point of view makes wonder how far it going to go.

Great photo, but this is a new phenomenon for me ... what's it all about?

Fun! So cool that you have the cantaloupe in mid air

Awesome shot! It's so fun to see these in action. Great job of getting the outgoing cantaloupe in there as well.

@jamibann usually pumpkins and they have contests on who can shoot them the furtherest or you take them after halloween and pay to watch them explode when they land. Kind of silly but is fun to watch.
