You would be surprised by the damage a potato can do at a high rate of speed, they can easily punch a hole through plywood.pat123 wrote:I have almost all of the parts, but now my dad said that i can only shoot soft stuff like nerf darts and potatos.
It's hard to soar with eagles when you're working with turkeys.
The problem with potatos is I don't think you could get them going too quickly before they broke up or got incinerated. So you could do quite a bit of damage with them, but you can't get them going fast enough to do it in an atmosphere without them disintegrating or burning up.
