Total crap. I stopped watching when he walked over to the spotting scope, panned it into position and declared a hit. Anyone knows that the scope is set before the shot and it takes time find a small target. Total crap!
What I don't understand is why. Hit golfball at 100 yards offhand and you get respect. Make an asinine claim and you get views. Pour on the grief.

The scope alone makes it fake . I feel like I have at least a better than average knowledge of scopes . At that distance , with the super low resolution of that scope looking into a setting sun ....You would be lucky to make out a Car from a Pickup Not exaggerating. I don't get the appeal of making such a video . It takes away from guys like Shooter1721 and BobO and Whiskey 68 shooters that make some incredible air rifle shots . Not to mention Ted , Matt , Claudio, Dana , and many others who can really shoot . Damn Shame

the ineresting part that i found was all the exploding golf balls ive seen have exploded into a few pieces and jumped off their target stand. But his just has a hole in it and is right where he put it to shot at it on a narrow ledge. my take on this video is a big fat B.S. and btw where is the fun in cheating?

I'm buying a Centerpoint !!! You can see a.golf ball at 400 yards looking into the sun at 4 power !!!!! Swarovski ain't got poop on Centerpoint !!

Why have I spent soooo much on equipment over the years? Centerpoint on 4x and a gauntlet is ALL a guy needs!

It's entirely possible. I shoot my rifles offhand at the end of every bench session that I do (alternating between 4-5 at various ranges). I've even shot my .22 Leshiy at 24x24" cardboard targets over 400y offhand 
. The projectile strike is difficult to hear over ~325y, but I can usually hear them faintly when they hit.

OK, here's the REAL DEAL. I popped that golf ball! Didn't mean to but missed the bottle cap I was shooting 600 yards away. It took 3.47 hours for my pellet to get there from California & hit his golf ball. He's trying to get credit for MY shot. That's the truth because I was watching HIS ball from MY spotting scope here in Cali. I would never stretch the truth.

His reaction to seeing the impact on what possibly is the worst scope on the market at almost 400 yards blows my mind !!! I have been blessed to have used some of the very best scopes ever made ....And at 4X your ass ain't gonna see a pellet impact

I recall my earlier statement after watching the video. Cheap scope and shooting into the sun = no f'n way he'd know that he hit it. I would have issues seeing that impact with my 7-35 ATACR from an offhand position, unless the ball exploded.
