Slinging Arrows With the Slingshot Rifle

[@87xfute]

Try dropping the whisker biscuit down a little so the arrows more level with the for wood and it'll probably not kick up as much. Great job though, very enjoyable. Seeya Rob

[@hudsonhertz]

Yep, I think that should help with the arrow flight, thanks!

[@PlatonicVoyeur]

@@hudsonhertz it's weird because this is backwards from what you'd normally do for a bow - nock high usually means your rest needs to go up, but I agree it looks like it needs to come down. It would be interesting to paper tune it with bare shaft arrows.

[@ScottyHugefellow]

Dude thats sick nicely done

[@bbwiebz3994]

Love your channel young man, so nice to see you got Ur lil sis involved in majority of your videos n that she's also sharp shooter. Being only child, I never got to share my passion for building n shooting with. Your workmanship on your build is top notch n very tidy. I built one of these slingshot rifle myself after seeing how accurate you got it to shoot with just a red dot sight guiding you. Keep up solid work dude. You are the very few channels that does their bands nice n tidy like slingshot channel guy and Zach Fowler n U are way younger than them too. Keep up solid builds. Subbed and watching from lil new Zealand.

[@hudsonhertz]

Awesome dude thanks for the comment and encouragement

[@LONEWOLF78.]

Bravo mate, thats awesome.

[@sherwinpalacio3227]

Nice slingshot rifle😊

[@khulekanijacob9992]

Nice work buddy

[@TriggerHappy007]

I made the same exact thing this week buddy. I used the same trigger but just made a knot to hold it. Nice job

[@Adam-gi1yl]

Nice toy 👍

[@grh7399]

DUDE; I would suggest you wear some SAFETY GLASSES, just in case those rubber straps (for whatever reason snap at the end) and come back and and hit your eye. Just to be safe.

[@robert-oq9jq]

I think you'd get a lot more velocity with crossbow bolts, cut out groove for them to ride in and lose the whisker biscuit, but that's just an after thought in hindsight from a backseat driver,,,,you did a great job man I've got to try it out

[@hudsonhertz]

@@robert-oq9jq good idea! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@robert-oq9jq]

@@hudsonhertzI'm not sure if my idea would work on your setup I think you've got a good design like it is I was just thinking about eliminating some weight off of The Arrow somehow

[@hudsonhertz]

@@robert-oq9jq yeah I see what you meat, I would have to alter the design a little bit I get where your heads at.

[@robert-oq9jq]

@@hudsonhertzthe problem with my idea if it's riding in that Groove the friction will probably counteract any weight savings in the arrow length but anywho, Where do you get your bands at?

[@hudsonhertz]

@@robert-oq9jq good thinking, I get my bands from Snipersling online.

[@mexicatrucker6309]

So its loke a cheaper crossbow? Still worth making

[@Krtoonovitch]

Nice concept there. I think that is you put the arrow rest like 10cm away from the rubberband stopper... arrow should fly more in a straigh line ( think of arrow rest on a bow... the bow line dont touch the arrow rest on the shoot... ) i dont know if i made my point clear 🤣

[@kostasss.251.]

Very nice video!!! Here in Greece we make bands of the thing which is inside bike tires. It works really well I would recommend you try it!

[@KarlosEPM]

Hey! We did that too when I was a kid (ages ago). Those are called "butyl inner tubes". And back then, car tyres also had them!! And that elastic was very powerful. Cheers!

[@kostasss.251.]

@@KarlosEPM yeah mate, fun stuff!!

[@bbwiebz3994]

Oh, so those inner tubes do work😮. Good cos I got some in my garage. Do they have more power than your .5mm commercial flat bands? I used inner tube to tie my bands onto the fork but didn't realise you can use em as main bands. Cheers dude. Learn something new everyday

[@Adam-gi1yl]

Like video 📹 -keep them coming

[@guynumi80]

Very nice 👍

[@عبدالمحسنالعولقي]

Thanks so much good and simple idea ❤ KSA

[@juliearguelles8138]

Really cool and awsome thanks for your inspiration

[@photobyTaps]

Excellent

[@ColtWalker-kw1kq]

Thats awesome where did you get the stock

[@hudsonhertz]

@@ColtWalker-kw1kq I made it, there a video on my channel if you want to watch the build

[@ColtWalker-kw1kq]

@@hudsonhertz so so cool you should sell them

[@pierregauthier3077]

I think pretty cool, I also think yoir arrows would fly better if the string didn't follow the arrow though the whisker biscuit.

[@rogerbussiii]

I'm concerned that those 2 screws might give. That's a lot of energy stored and pulling on those and if they give while your behind it your gonna have a bad time. Especially if you add more bands.I'd consider bolts set backwards with nuts on the outside. Router or chisel just enough out of the end to set the bolts.. maybe even drill out the endpiece to suport slightly thicker bolts. Or use thick dowel rods that extend the stock to add suport to the end plate and in the end suport the upper part of that endpiese.. so not all the torque is on the screws

[@hudsonhertz]

Ok, that sounds like a worthy upgrade. Thanks for the comment!👍

[@mikemiles3068]

Nice video 👍

[@eduardomarin33]

Que largo mide el rifle que usas aqui para usar con flechas

[@jozefhorvat3625]

👍👍👍

[@gidukvideos5084]

Wow..nice and creative my friend 👍

[@TriggerHappy007]

What kind of bands do you use? Are they just workout bands?

[@nhipsongcham2003]

👍👍

[@ricardoaguilar4602]

Sensacional arma, muy bien diseñada. CONGRATULATIONS, pero seria maravilloso que subieras un TUTORIAL MUY DETALLADO de como se construye, especialmente la parte metalica. Saludos cordiales desde San Francisco de Campeche, en el sureste de la zRepublica Mexicana.

can i ask you to hunt and cook some more? sorry if my words are a bit messy because I use translate

[@ismaylhmzyev3614]

Wow. Amazing👍😍

[@raleheponakki6962]

Where did you get that rear sight and what could it cost???

[@hudsonhertz]

I got it on Amazon for about $26, here’s the link… a.co/d/anhC6zL

[@TriggerHappy007]

Amazon or eBay

[@derickwilliams2195]

Wow great project but I hope you did not burn your fingers ...

[@nasroking1785]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ronyrahman4453]

Really Awesome 👍, Great invention dude🔥 just subscribed your channel. Can i know the thickness of the flat rubber? . Best wishes & Love for you bro❤️❤️❤️

[@hudsonhertz]

@@ronyrahman4453 thanks bro, I used a double banded 0.7mm

[@shady8273]

i think you shoul get bolts that are heavier and shorter than arrows, it will be more accurate

[@abbipew]

this is pretty dope! my only thought is this technically isn't a sling-bow lol. sling-bows are much more similar to a sling-shot, where you still have to hold back the bands. (for reference i'd recommend checking out SimpleShot's Hammer sling-bow) what you have made however is something equally as awesome, a sling-crossbow! i might honestly have to make one for myself, so thank you for sharing!

[@hudsonhertz]

Awesome, thanks for the comment! I really didn’t know what to call it but sling crossbow sounds pretty on point 👍

[@Dallasgarrett139]

I love your videos when you do stuff like this❤

[@Theo-o6f5l]

That´s a kind of crosssbow

[@michaelarmbruster586]

Is cool

[@МаратХасенов-б1с]

It will be more better, if you will make a "ring" from the toothbrush "heads". See more information about this on Joerg Sprave's slingshot channel.

[@barebowfish]

好有趣，不过箭支好像有点海豚跳

[@matthewd.1805]

Better suited for sling darts, yo.

[@robertwong2412]

arrow doesn't seem to straighten fast enough. Perhaps need helical fletchings.

[@catapult01]

😮👍

[@khunnation2320]

Hi buddy try this slingbow hunting rabbits 👍

[@Musicentertainwanim]

Hi,New to here , plz suprt,learning slingshot to hunt from 2023 thanks

[@hillbillypatriot1]

Just get a crossbow

[@TriggerHappy007]

The point of making one is that you can make one yourself! Just get a cross bow 😂 not talented or crafty I see? We're not all talented enough to build our own I guess.
