I made this one a few days ago out of a single, 12 foot piece of paracord. Slowly getting the hang of it - It was a fun way to pass time /out/ in the woods. Hard to believe people used to hunt with these.

Made one a few months ago, lots of fun but I still haven't got gud. I've found I have more accuracy with overhand throw for close targets and underhand for farther targets. Sidearm throw a shit.

To clarify, overhand releases at top of swing and underhand releases as the sling passes the knee. I give one full circle for the windup.
I made 2 kinds once. You put the rock in the swing it maybe a half turn then the rock flies out and you run like hell with your hands covering your head. To master one of these would take years.

Those guys sling. They use all forms of primitive weaponry.

I am very clearly on drugs. For some reason, this address was not what I remembered.

I made three out of jute twine a couple weeks ago when the last thread was up. Fun to play with, but haven't taken it out yet. Its nice to know that I can now build one at the drop of a hat and with natural fibres no less, but I'd rather have a wrist rocket than a rock sling for sniping small game for food. Too much learning curve.
I found one when I was around 8 and i thought it was some sort of belt. I pretty much figured out how to use one myself and I can get good range with good accuracy a lot of the time. They are really fun to just mess around with.
GREEK OVERHEAD IS BEST STYLE
Remember, slinging.org for all your slinging needs. It's a good site and a good community. I'm still sad that the AusSling guy isn't around anymore.

Caps UNlock is best style.
I know it's easier to read it that way, grandma, but you already know what you wrote, everyone else can see it just fine.

lol no. That's the side entrance to my detached garage. My cars live in there, however.

No, I use ball bearing sling, not some primitive rock sling like you do.
