Shooting a Hole-In-One With A Flintlock

[PathfinderNC]

This is just a fun little post- I was shooting some trap in the yard with my son today, he with his shotgun and I with my Fusil de Chase.
This shot was a laugh- Christian thought I missed but I could see the hole thru the clay pigeon as it began to fall.
Sure enough, my first "Hole-In-One"

Looks like a heart shot to me, good shooting!!!

Nice shot but it don't count unless a chip breaks off!

I know. It's a bummer at a trap shoot. I went 2 for 3 with my 58 smooth bore and a fellow watching thought I dusted the 3rd one. I figured I was ahead of the game and people were impressed so I quit!
