Rufus Hussey Ia A Slingshot Marksman Who Never Misses - The Original Georgia Traveler WSB-TV

[@bobbyscott8024]

Rufus was my neighbor growing up in the '60's! My brother, cousin and I helped get up hay on his farm. He paid well and his wife always had a big table of food prepared when we were through! He was a WW2 Veteran and a very good man! He made 100's if not 1000's of those before he started numbering them on the bottom! He was on the Johnny Carson show as well and you can find it on YT! I still have 2 of his to this day!

Marksmanship with any weapon is all about repetition/practice once the basics are mastered. With a sling shot more hand eye coordination comes into play than with firearms. Haven't touched a sling shot in over 50 years. Not even sure if they still are made but the "wrist rocket" slings were scary accurate and extremely powerful when using quality shot. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it but my older brother dropped a deer from about 15 yards with a head shot.

[@shakebabyhitler]

I still have two wrist rockets from when I was a kid, and a big bag of shot. Pulled 'em out of the closet after I watched this. I'm not as good as this old guy but my kids were pretty impressed with how good I am with it. I was surprised all those hours I spent as a kid are still in my muscle memory!

Your brother was a pos. Poor deer had to die just for sick amusement.

[@ralphcantrell3214]

My Dad, who was born in 1923, was also deadly accurate with a slingshot and always kept one around, although he referred to them as, "a pair of flips". To him, a "slingshot" was something totally different, as in what David used to dispatch Goliath. While growing up and coming of age in the throes of the Great Depression, he could always find rocks for his flips, but usually couldn't afford shells for the family's one old shotgun. Later in life, he always kept a bag of old marbles around in case he needed to be deadly accurate, like to dispatch any pesky bird that decided to to poop on the car or patio furniture for more than two days in a row. I take it this video was made a while back. If he is still with us, I hope Mr. Hussey will leave a video tutorial on the proper technique for shooting a slingshot. I failed to ask my Dad for one, since I always had an air rifle with an endless supply of pellets, and I fear this skill could become lost forever.

In the 1950's and 60's my dad was an avid duck hunter. He would jump shoot ducks from his small duck boat as he rowed around a small lake that contained a lot of wild rice. When he crippled a duck and he chased it, it was usually too close to shoot it again with a shotgun (also a waste of ammo) so he would dispatch it with his slingshot. He had learned this skill while growing up, providing ruffed grouse for the dinner table. Sadly I was never able to come anywhere near his skills with the slingshot.

Let me tip you off about the story I'll post tomorrow. The story is about one of the last rolling stores in Alabama. For decades they were a big part of the rural south but by 1973 there were only 2-3 left. I hope you will check it out.

We had wrist rockets growing up, never could hit a damn thing with it - so I'm impressed!

In what year was this video filmed, will the people who shoot the slingshots be alive? I also like them very much.

Hi, this story was filmed in 1978. I'm sure there are some slingshot experts out there. Check out the USA Slingshot Shooters Facebook page. Thanks for watching the story.

Born 1954, by 1962 I was making slingshots and knew how to use them accurately. It's 60 % gut and 40% training. Build one, get to know one, it will never let you down.

Spoken like a man who knows his slingshots. Thanks for watching.

@@georgiatraveler No where in your league, but I could take out hovering dogon flies at fifty feet on a good day, and never had bullies to worry about. 😉

I like the swarm trap hanging in the tree

[@parttimetourist]

I had exactly the same when I was a kid and never missed because I was very good at making and using them. Also, I put a bridge across one with a notch in the centre for shooting arrows just as good as any bow but far easier carried

[@MasterYoist]

I messed up a good slingshot doing that. SMH

[@parttimetourist]

@@MasterYoist Strange I had no problem so what happened with you? PTT

We need Mr. Hussey for President.
