catapult shooting tips for beginners (and everyone else for that matter!) slingshot accuracy tips

[@hughorr4Jesus]

Great tips! I just bought my first slingshot (catapult) and want to develop some good habits from the start. This video will help. Thank you much.

[@Dan_the_Catty_Man]

All about practice mate. Take the tips an put them into practice, over time you’ll find your own way. I’m still learning, and i’ve been doing this a while🫡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@gideonluxmore4414]

I'm realising the importance of breath control especially if to you the band is quite heavy !

[@achildofthelight4725]

Increase your good habits by moving onto a moving targets..... tail lights of a speeding car in a controlled speed zone at 2am will eventually eliminate any issues you have killing two birds with one stone. 😊

[@luisalejandroalvarez8817]

This is one of the best tutorials I've ever seen in my life, thanks 🤓👌

[@billshuey7422]

Great video, and I am very glad I found your site. Being an expat in Thailand now with a pigeon problem, I am attempting to learn this skill.

[@MD76MAC]

I had two friends who lived together. They had a mouse problem one winter. One guy told the other to do something about it. Instead of buying traps, his roommate bought a blowgun.😂

Good tip about getting the forks level, I never thought of walking into a wall, well, not sober anyway.

[@gafengla]

Very well presented indeed , and very good advice from Keith!!

I really really liked this dimo vid on the slingshot, thank you . ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🇺🇸

[@zionmattitis727]

Hi I'm from the Philippines, , I'm a beginner for using slingshot and I don't know how to aim correctly to my target,. But when I see your tutorial, I can make it, My slingshot is, diy, cluch fork.. hahaha, Keep it up budy, keep safe.. mabuhay

[@keithdighton]

Thanks buddy!

[@robstrong5734]

Good video Keith mate. I'm shooting quite well but every now and again I get a shot going an inch or so higher than the target and could never work out why.... after watching this I'm assuming my bottom fork is slightly further forward than the top. Something to keep an eye on. Great tip. Cheers fella and happy shooting

[@keithdighton]

No problem rob, yes I would say that's what your doing. If your bottom band is retracting faster then it will force the ammo up. Ita quite important to get the forks level!

[@Zerpersande]

The forks aren’t perpendicular to the target. They are parallel to the target and perpendicular to the ground.

[@dogstar5572]

Your geometry is off.

[@SirDirtycusD]

@zerpersande you are wrong

[@olafscarrot1400]

Brilliant.....that’s how you teach people.

Dear Sir! I would like to ask if there is a formula for cutting the length of the rubber. Thanks Robert

[@shanejackson213]

Really good video Exactly the stage I'm at,trying to reduce group size,dont know any catty shooters so relie on videos like this. Bin shooting 6mths gone from 3ft to 3 inch now thanks to this 2 inch might be achieved with some serious practice, thanks again!

[@keithdighton]

No problem Shane, I'm very please it will help you! Sometimes it's the little things that get overlooked and they make a big difference!

Thanks paul, lovely choice of frame by the way!

[@MD76MAC]

Im like 3 weeks in. My main struggle is keeping my arm that i hold the slingshot in steady.

[@shanejackson213]

Hi Keith me again, Have you ever known this,changed bands yesterday and started shooting groups like a champion,couldn't believe it,only when I checked my bands I'd put ttf on my ott,how the hell does that work!

[@keithdighton]

if your shooting well like that then keep doing it! i know several people who tie ott bandsets on ttf frames and vice versa. you may be getting a rifling effect on the ball on release and if its working dont change it as we are all different

[@dalroache]

What bands R u using here? Were they precise or snipersling ?

[@eljunayag2954]

whats your taper on the band for 6.37mm ammo?

[@fuadhj.fadzil1662]

[@andyquelch662]

Thanks for a great in depth video 👍 As a right handed person which hand would you recommend my catty is in? ... I've just got a wasp starter kit and have been shooting with my frame in my right hand ???

[@keithdighton]

totally depends on what is your dominant eye is andy, if your left eye dominant you want to be holding in your right hand and if your right eye dominant you hold in your left and like me. if your sat down, point at a small target with both eyes open. then close your left eye while still pointing. if your finnger is still on the target your left eye dominant if its not then you are right eye. simple!

[@luxmidhar5736]

Really brilliant sir very nice

[@TheAxia5573]

Good tips. I will make do with it. TQ.

[@minkorrh]

Like anything....consistency is key. Same stance, same draw, same anchor point, same ammo, same bands, same distance, same underwear. If it's fruit of the loom, you're eating good tonight.

[@prcnl]

Hi Keith. Nice video. What bands do you use with the 6mm ammo? Also The ammo size you mentioned is it just for target shooting or do you use it for hunting? Cheers fella.

[@keithdighton]

Thanks paul, I'm using .45 bsb, I have hunted and killed clean with it but it's got to be an eyeball shot. The speed out of this set is amazing

[@adamvvs2644]

Hi, I'm new to this ,I'm a right handed what hand do I hold the frame in ?

[@no-trick-pony]

Do slingshot target shooters suffer from gold fever (target panic) like people in archery too?

[@bushcrafty7274]

I've missed at 6yards hunting, I hit a squirrel on the head at 30 yards because I didn't panic, assuming I'd just miss completely but was perfect
