That is sweet!! I wonder if he's still alive and kicking? He's still probably shooting off his porch!

wow thats awesome!

When he hit the quarter out of the air and smoked the beetle off the leaf without hitting the leaf was amazing.

I wonder what year this video is from, those are some vintage pepsi cans.

Yea, I saw him on Shooting USA TV.

And FWIW, Bob Munden is damn good with a sling shot himself. But not as good as this guy.

Rufus passed in February, 1994. Fortunately, in 1972 Rufus decided decided to start making beanshooters to sell or give away in order to promote what he felt was becoming a lost art. He gave each its own serial number which recorded on the butt end of the handle. The last beanshooter he had completed carried the number 15,864. Now that's a lot of walking the woods searching for dogwood forks.

NOTE: I almost forgot to mention, these were called "Rufus Hussey Derringer Beanshooters"
