July 4th Range Fun! Tanner-Melon?!?

Got this idea and wanted to share it with you all. Went out Sunday to film it and had some difficulties. Almost destroyed a GoPro. Tried to make a plexi shield and get you all real close to the boom, but I got too close and totally shattered the plexi sheet. I also forgot to switch to slo-mo mode, so I didn't even film it so I could slow it down and see what happened!! So total fail on Day 1. Got all loaded up Monday to go out and then a wild storm popped up and dumped about an inch of rain in 35 minutes!! Luckily it missed my range area and only got a little sprinkle out there. Waited for the worse of the storm to pass so I didn't get hit with lightning and got set up again.
I tried to get through a watermelon and make a boom, but it seems the watermelon pulled too much energy from the shot and it only cracked the jar. So the Water-ite name is out since it didn't work. But the Tanner-Melon works well!!

Had fun making this. Remember to be thankful for the freedom we do still have here in our great country!! I'm blessed to be in a state that is less restrictive than others. I appreciate every one of you that checks out my videos. Enjoy the rest of you day today!!

This is a private range. All shooting is done in a safe, controlled environment with no people or dwellings within miles to be at risk.
