Learn How To Shoot A Slingshot Instinctively, The Fun Way...

[@headpainter1]

Back in the 70s, my brother and I were extremely proficient with the wrist rockets. We use to ride in the back of our dad's pickup truck down country backroads and hit cans and bottles in the road ditches with an extremely high hit percentage. This was with tubes and yard rocks. I just picked up a band model and am loving it. Wish I had it years ago. I realized pretty quick that i need to build a few traps because 3/8" steel is my preferred ammo now. I tried the sighting methods but instinctive just works for me. It's all about the practice practice practice.... Great video!!!!

[@ChuckinSteel]

Dude that's awesome you're getting back into it. Good luck👊

[@reniervanzyl8168]

I have to give thanks where it's due... The slingshot bug git a hold of me about a year ago and through guys like you it was easier to pick up my own skills. I don't have any idea how much of a gelp you personally have been to me. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with guys like me I wish you al the good luck in the world and that your channel will just grow and grow. Thanks again. Renier.

Thanks so much 🙏 I really hope the best for you too. 👊

Beautiful country

It is until it rains a heavy rain. Then it picks up trash from the city. City ppl just assume others are picking the trash up but it just gets carried down the creeks and rivers. Sad 😔

You really are damn good!

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks Timbo 👊. I appreciate it brother 🙏

[@manofkentcatapultsgunsando5069]

Good stuff , I like how you shoot instinctively with a gangster style grip , as I can only shoot instinctively upright, Its surprisingly easy to hit moving targets instinctively when aiming would be a sure miss ,,,,,,keep up the good work mate.

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks brother 👊 your 100% correct about moving target's. It's kind crazy bc you feel the shot b4 you release and know if it's a hit or miss. I know, I'm like the black sheep when it comes to Instinctive shooting because I hold sideways. Most people do hold up right. Thanks again brother 🙏👊🇺🇸🇬🇧💪

[@aksalaman4689]

Nice shooting!

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thank you 🙏 and thank you for watching and commenting. It means alot.

[@KalevalaSlingshot]

That style needs a lot practice.... You make it look so easy 👏👍

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks Brother K. It does and thats why I wish they would offer this in tournaments. You know do 10m, 20m, and woods course aimed. Then do them or atleast 1 of them instinctive. We need to keep the old school way of shooting alive. I think rhe rules of it would be simple really, release with in 1 sec of your draw. I don't know why anyone hasn't thought of this. I mean they have speed shooting but it's not the same bc that has more to do with loading the pouch and things quickly. Anyway If someone does put it in a tournament, you heard it here first. 😆 🤣

[@coyoteslings]

Nice shooting 👌

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks Tim. 👊

[@northeastslingshot1664]

Truth! Im new 6 months shooting. Im trying to shoot at least 50 ball a day. Ive narrowed down my flaws and worked on stance release and aiming. Last week I started doing 10 balls fast....just pull and shoot. Truly helps. I shoot paper targets so I can see my flaws and adjust. I have 80% of my shots within a 4 inch circle now and nailing half inch bullseyes 1/4 shots. Im figuring by summer and 2k more practice rounds Ill be a bit better. Shooting the Scout and 9. 5 balls. Thanks bub. You are all inspirational for the new shooter. 🤘Brad

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks brother🙏🙏🙏 It the whole reason I started this channel. To spread the love for slingshots and to help others get better. I really appreciate the kind words. They mean alot to me. Thanks again 🙏 👊

Oh and keep it up. Your already a good shot sounds like. I'm a 9.5 guy too.

[@jasonhaire8897]

I had a good time shooting a marksmen wrist rocket slingshot with dollar store marbles them cat eyes 100 for a dollar at with that blue and yellow swirl in the marble shooting at old glass beer bottles sat on top of a old rusty farm tractor way back when I was a teenager. The Marksman was my slingshot growing up it was 6 dollars at wal mart and the sports authority, And sadly the marksman 3/8 steel ammo was 3.99$ for 75 count it was a rip off so we used dollar store cheap playing marbles worked great I would save a only shoot the 3/8 steel for hunting and use marbles in the mix. That slingshot brought me so much joy growing up I wish now that simpleshot had been around back then with their flat band slingshots back then or any type of production flat band shooter they really work so much better for accuracy and more power.

[@ChuckinSteel]

That's awesome Brother and so true. I never did understand why the ammo was and still is so expensive from. Daisy. I can get 1000 for 20$ but they charge 5$ for 100 or something like that. My first slingshot was a natural Walnut fork with cut bicycle tubes for bands. Then later got a wrist rocket.

[@XianJane]

Wow this is amazing. Thanks for sharing keep it up

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thank you 🙏 🙏🙏

[@conniecostigan637]

While you may not purposely use the slingshot as an aiming device/point, you do use it as a reference point subconsciously when shooting instinctively. Same as in archery where one cannot but help to see the arrow on the shelf out of your peripheral vision but we try and ignore it and, instead, concentrate on the target! For proof, try shooting archery or catapults in complete darkness with just the target lit up. Hits are nearly impossible. Though I've read where Japanese archers of old practices such to vastly improved their instinctive aiming.

[@ChuckinSteel]

Yeah I understand what your saying. I shoot rabbit in the dark but it isn't exactly pitch black but I can say I don't see my bands. I'll have to give that a try. Thanks for the idea 💡 and for watching and commenting 👊

[@zwillenfink9729]

yeah, great tips and excellent shooting👏 I started shooting instinctively many years ago and it's still fun. thanks for sharing brother🙂👍

[@ChuckinSteel]

Yes sir thank you, I think everyone should get to where they can hit a can pretty regular b4 the start aiming. Hand eye condition and letting your mind work freely

[@simontanner]

Excellent shooting and excellent video 👍🏻

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks again brother 👊

[@k.o.skeeponshooting235]

Great tips brother!! I started Shooting instinctively and became an Aimer. Awesome video 👏 enjoyed it.

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks brother 👊. I think we all probably did that. I think it's how people should learn. The down side is when people start aiming they forget about shooting instinctive. I hunt rabbit this way bc I normally walk and kick them up. If their sitting still ill aim but they are running more often then not.

[@samuraibyrd]

Shooting without aiming works better for me.I learned how to shoot handguns with old style revolvers that had little to no sights,and I had to learn to shoot instinctively,kinda the same way. Thanks man,very informative!!!

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thank you brother, glad you like it.

I used to be able to hit anything instinctively with my Barnett Black Widow when I was about 12. These flat band cattys are a whole different learning curve. I need practice!

[@ChuckinSteel]

They are different but better In so many ways.

Thank you. Normally around distances of under 20yds I don't miss a can shooting this way. I was trying to pop them up in the air for video and cost me a little bit. Lol.

@Jeff Aschbacher oh yeah you can get up to about 270fps that way.

Excellent brother! It’s such a satisfying feeling. I used to do something similar with my speed shooting. Almost had to be completely instinctive. I would say “I’m ya huckleberry”😂 in sure you’ve seen Tombstone haha. Great terrain there

[@ChuckinSteel]

Thanks brother 👊. Yeah I normally move around and do different things but I was just trying to show people how to get better. Tombstone is a classic.

[@northeastslingshot1664]

Question...in your opinion...whats the best skinning trapper knife thats affordable

[@ChuckinSteel]

What price range are you thinking?

[@northeastslingshot1664]

@@ChuckinSteel $100 or under

[@ChuckinSteel]

@@northeastslingshot1664 ok if you can find it on sale the TOPS Viper Scout, it will run about 100$. It's my most carried knife out of all my knives but if you can save about 40 more $ the TOPS Camp Creek is my all time favorite and it is in s35vn steel. They also make the Idaho hunter which is good. Under 100$ the Joker Nessmuk, it normally runs about 80$ on Amazon. They have different versions but the one that's just the knife and sheath is about 80$. It's a winner for sure.

[@MrLoios-pz9sk]

How long are your bandset

[@ChuckinSteel]

Mine are normally about 290mm for my draw length. Depending on the bands brand and purpose I cut my bands anywhere between 280mm - 300mm.

[@LegionTacticoolCutlery]

You have been shooting slingshot since you were a kid right?

[@ChuckinSteel]

Yeah but It was off and on until my 30s

[@LegionTacticoolCutlery]

@@ChuckinSteel right but basically you had the basics down at a young age. I am sure lots of practicing is a factor to in your 30s. Pretty amazing!
