Boob Tube- red eye special

Too windy for the blast - rescheduled for Turkey & Grits!
11/25/17: Launched at GRITS, nice boost but wind was picking up & drifted a bit. Landed about 1/2 mile south of pad. Roy the neighbor gave me a ride on his ATV to retrieve it. Landed in a harvested cotton field on access road next to trees. Booster was in the tree, chute was on the road. For the winds aloft, this rocket drifts too much even with no drogue!
Update 11/27/17: Photos & flight data uploaded!

Other video from previous flight show well extended shock cord.. So the tape must have been to tight, had that also a few times, and then I started to use rubber bands..

You right! Need to try rubber bands or less tape!
