Sage Creek Gus SASS #64320 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 For those who might be interested I've now posted five Whirling Dervish videos on our club's website. We will be shooting it in it's first real match a week from tomorrow, April 20th. This will be the first time anyone has shot it while on the clock which will add more pressure. Here's a link. http://www.bigforkbuscaderos.com/ Sage creek gus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 You are seriously sadistic with a mean streak of humor that runs a mile wide! I could go through many rounds of ammo enjoying your invention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must take a while to re-set it? All the bearings have locks on them. It's a finger pincher without that. With two people attaching targets and one handing them targets it takes about a minute.

Krazy Kajun Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 You ought to have that contraption at an annual match and charge folks to shoot it....bet you could make some money for a worthy cause and have some videos to submit to "America's Funniest Home Videos." What a great work of ingenuity and construction Sage Creek Gus....just outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I don't think there is enough .44-40 ammo in the world for me to clear the plates off that thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancy Shot, SASS #67163 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Gus - You are deranged and in serious need of proffesional help. On the other hand, that looks like fun. Chancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dang It Dan 13202 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 For everybody who complained about the "Wowwie-Zowwie", the" Zowwie-Wowwie" and the Whirley Bird, all I can say is obviously I am NOT the meanest man in the sport. Please see above. Regards, Dang It Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I'd be better closing in with a knife and tomahawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sage Creek Gus SASS #64320 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Thanks for all your comments. I can't wait til a week from now when we shoot it for the first time under the clock. A few weeks ago I had some friends up to my shop and we "shot" it with a hammer. We were even missing targets standing right in front of it swinging a hammer. Actually, I'm contemplating a new target even more evil than this one. SCG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sage Creek Gus SASS #64320 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 For all of you who expressed a wish to take a crack at the Whirling Dervish we will be shooting it for the first time at a regular match this coming Saturday, April 20th at the Bigfork Gun Club out side Bigfork, MT. Here's a link to the stages online: http://www.bigforkbuscaderos.com/2013/april/aprilstages.html We will also be shooting my other moving targets, the Polish Pickle Rack and the Rolling drop target along with a Texas Star. I hope to have video of these targets to post online after the match. Come and join us. Sage Creek Gus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sage Creek Gus SASS #64320 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 I'd be better closing in with a knife and tomahawk. Actually, that doesn't help much, we had people missing the targets when we tested it with a hammer. SCG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
