Plus they have one that throws a golf ball 200 feet which is better then my drive sometimes. Image taking it to a golf course and playing 9 holes with a couple of different sizes of catapults.

need a bigger golf cart im guessing lol

[adamwest]

this machine is only 34 inches tall, 18 inches long and 7 inches wide.
Engineered using modern mechanical principles and computer aided design, this mini-powerhouse can hurl a golf ball over 200 feet. It uses guillotine action and a plunging beam to maximize potential energy and a floating arm to convert that energy into projectile motion. Precision crafted of high quality hardwood, the kit contains everything you need to build a working model.*

nice huh?

wow ya real cool...thats a neat little project...i really like how they tidy'd up the weights....that thing would probably put a good lashing on ya if your where standing in the wrong spot aye?
so whats the damage on a kit like that run ya...
ill guess...300...maybe more depending on what the weights are made of

[adamwest]

that's the best part it way cheaper then a ISIS it US$ 139 and i believe it comes will all the parts you need. like i said my child isn't even born yet so it has time.

This egg throwing trebuchet sounds like a silly sport. Why can't you just stick to traditonal sensible things like Gurning or Dwile Flonking?
