Gamekeeper John - A Decade in Catapults

[@theslingshotofoz2825]

John you have done more in advancing slingshots from a child's toy to where we are today. I've been making and shooting slingshots for 79 years and seen others come and go. You can be very proud of your achievements. Keep up the good work and stay safe. Oz

[@jasoneves9674]

Fair play to you John, nothing but respect to you. I have had a catapult as long as I can remember, but your videos got me back into it and learned loads of new techniques from you so thanks for putting all these videos up and sharing what you've learnt over the years 👍

[@robertralph973]

Been a fan of you around 2012 or 2013 I've learned a lot from you from your youtube videos I have a lot of respect for you. You are a great teacher and happy for your success. Thank you John.

[@dudleyedge1374]

I have learnt so much from your channel, bought your catapults, its addictive ! got my 7 year old great niece shooting my older ones now, all down to you, Thank you !

[@Dominochaney]

My Dad Got me my first Catty in 1975 a Goliath it was Called with Square Bands ..I have been Hooked ever Since But your Vids will definitely encourage a New Generation cheers Pal

[@baikal627]

Love your story well done 👏🤟

[@jaseoutdoorsin3075]

Yes John, awesome vid as usual, u are the reason I got into shooting, keep the content coming enjoying the fishing 👌

[@phillipmatthews2531]

Well done John,another great video,it’s amazing to me at 73 when I was a child and we had it drummed into us how we had to earn a living and wouldn’t do it playing around with the things I loved,cattys,bikes,guns etc. and now how things have changed! I believe someone even told the Beatles to get a proper job as they would never make a living from music!🥴 Hey good luck to you and yours John!

[@c.tbowman333]

Even though there is an ocean between us,through your KZbin channel I have certainly learned a lot from you thank you thank you

[@alcattyman797]

Thanks for all you've done for the Catty thing John, you're the best. Watching your vids got me into all this, retired now and it's taking up most of my days. All the best for the future and stay safe, AL.

[@gh0stfusion505]

Your a legend mate 💯💪

[@monkey0550ify]

Thank you for following your dreams its because of you I now own 6 cattys much mahalo my friend 🤙🏽

[@outandaboutsince1986]

The first time I got in to catapults was 10 years ago I stumbled across a video of you shooting marbles out the air and 100ft lighter shots and bands tied to a shoe 👞 and a mobile phone 📱 I couldn't believe how someone could hit targets like you do. Absolute legend never was lucky enough to purchase any of the ply frames tho

[@ashleyercoli6625]

Brilliant history there mate glad to see it’s all payed off and amazing seeing everything you have gave to the sport all the best to you and your family for the future

[@benpriestman4015]

fairplay to you mate,without your vids the uk scene wouldnt be half of what it is today. Thanks for your input pal and good luck going forward.

[@b_wtangible_moments]

Awesome been following you since the beginning. One of my all time favorite channels. 🍻

[@bantheban92]

Go on john lad, I remember the tarpaulin videos mush. Smashed the game

[@minisynthcollective7822]

What a great video. You should be very proud of what you have achieved. Well done.

[@davidkerrychubb1]

Great bloke and a inspiration to the sport best wishes Landrover dave

[@richardharris5083]

Got into catapult shooting after watching a warrener video " old ways of a poacher " thought wow that looks easy . Quickly found out it wasn't. Practicing with my old milbro wasn't great . So got myself a PPSG multi signed and improved Quickly. Ttf was the way for . Still have the multi signed . Don't see many about now . But noticed one on this video . 👍

[@RW7266]

I'm glad that it all panned out for you. It's a good story and one I'm happy to be part of. The worst thing about doing a hobby for a living is that it becomes a chore. I'm a swimming teacher that barely swims for that reason. Over the past two and a bit years I've taken at least eighty rats in our local park with my aluminium PPMG and (I think,) Bloodstopper. I can do a reasonable head shot at fifteen metres. So thanks for the inspiration.

[@Jib230181]

All I can say is Well Done on your achievements.

[@wayneberry8703]

Great story John, well done mate 👍🏼…

[@liamwebb9638]

[@kevinlloyd8010]

Awesome John 👌

[@nigelvernau6962]

Cracking vid john as always love your content and your catapults and I shot 1 of your gps ones in ply couldn't get a beter frame 👍

[@ianrace1253]

Nice one John 👍

[@whoarewe7515]

You managed to hit the one hundred. Congratulations.

[@mattjones1383]

Great video mate 👍🏻

[@graemewhalen40]

Your video reminded me of my childhood love of slingshots as we call them here in Canada and got me back into the sport. Back then we were lucky to hit a pie plate at twenty feet and your generous instructions helped me get to at least a decent level of performance and so much enjoyment. The first catapults I ever ordered were from you and I still have them, amongst many others. Thank you so much for all you have done. It's about time I ordered some more.

[@jebjeb7770]

A Legend!

[@rosethorn8613]

Great video, totally inspirational! Thanks. I'm new to all this and been watching and learning a lot from your videos. I think I've settled on the idea of getting myself one of your HDPE cati's. (The video of you actually TRYING to break one, and not managing it, reassured me that they ARE sturdy and therefore safe.) I think I want the TTF PPMG+ Slimline Ghost Edition. I'm guessing the 'slimline' refers to the width of the forks and where you hold it? & that the depth, as in, thickness front to back, is the same as the not slimline ones? & that it would therefore be better for my average sized girlie hands? Would be grateful if you could let me know if I'm right about these aspects of it. & thanks again for all the knowledge you've shared. 😁

[@bruno-orante]

Thank you
