I just recently started slinging. Im not very good and need some practice. There is a level of skill involved that I didn't anticipate when I made my first sling.

I made a couple just like the one in the photo. I gave one to my nephew and one to my brother.

I plan on getting a lot of practice this summer up at lake Erie. If you've ever been to lake Erie's beach you would understand why. Millions of smooth slinging rocks as far as the eye can see.

LMAO That's funny! But, probably true.

Probably considered an assault weapon in Kali. You can't give those Barbaric Horde's too much fire power.

ban it, and ban images of it! The second I viewed it, I heard the school children who live next door start crying out in fear.

Preacher, I'm lefthanded, can I try it, can I try it.

Oh, wait, I live in Kalif. also.

that projectile looks like it's at leasts .50" or greater, so along with my S&W 500, your sling is an official weapon of mass destruction under PRK "law".

Ooh, me too! But since I live in NC, I bet it's legal.
