[@deankornegay4854]

They’re beautiful!

[@nathangrueber9834]

You spent the whole video holding slingshots with your bloody simpleshot logo pasted on top so you cant see

[@JonDough-412]

@@simpleshot I really like the custom!! I shoot pinch grip. That’s why I love my simple shots! So the custom has the scout shape I like. That would be so awesome to have a beautiful wooden scout!!! Good luck everyone!

AXIOM SLINGSHOOOOOTT

[@oneeyedan]

What amazing craftsmanship! Just so cool!

[@chrismorrow1974]

Beautiful craftsmanship. It's staying with the natural materials and giving it modern twist that I admire. I'm a slingshot craftsman myself.

[@nathanlester5054]

Really enjoyed the history of the Axiom slingshot Nathan. The slingshots are absolutely beautiful!

[@ATOMark]

Great work Nathan. I hope these beauties wind up in good hands.

[@DerSlash]

Beautiful craftsmanship! About 15-16 years ago I used to shoot a slingshot regularly with some friends and we always had a lot of fun with it. But at some point it fell asleep due to my job and family. A few days ago I saw that JJ @FueltheFires showed and recommended the new Axiom on @SurvivalDispatch's channel. I've always done very well with his recommendations and would really like to reactivate the old love for slingshots with an Axiom. Greetings from Germany

[@chriskunis7859]

This brand is some of the coolest slingshots available and they keep adding new options which shows they are dynamic and dedicated. Thank you.

[@hoffthegreat5055]

Awesome

[@barrybowland3867]

Pretty cool that slingshots have taken off noticeably even in the past 2 years since I’ve gotten into them!

[@coltonware5627]

That aluminum core is one of the most beautiful slingshots I’ve seen man.. you are truly an artist!!!

[@alandouthwaite6980]

Totally agree

[@JonDough-412]

I agree ❤

[@SamanthaMMElliott]

I absolutely love Simple Shot! They are the reason why I am enjoying shooting with my husband. The wrist rocket he used to shoot I wasn’t able to control and manage to shoot. I am able to actually have fun with and challenge him now! We have a great time! Also, this next year will be my husband’s fiftieth birthday and I can’t think of a more memorable awesome gift than this for him! He’s a “rough around the edges” kind of guy but I do confirm that if he won this that there will be some shedding of some tears.

[@threestarsandasling]

Nathan, I'd like to trade a kidney for that Osage frame 😂 It's divine! The old Flippin Out logo is a beautiful touch. Incredible story behind the Axiom, man, and what a blessing you are to the slingshot community and it was a pleasure to have shook your hand at ECST. LEGEND!

[@alandouthwaite6980]

Put me down with the other kidney !!! I agree it is a work of art

[@TargetForge]

Nice work Nathan! Your eye for the beautiful slingshot is unmatched!

[@chris.p.]

Craftsmanship at its finest. Incredible works of art that play in the highest class. Plus the whole philosophy and the stories behind the materials and working methods... Highly impressive! Many thanks for the insights!

[@auraonlinefitness]

Your enthusiasm for your craft is apparent and respected! I can hear and see the love you put into what you do. I have that as a creative. Thank you for sharing. I just got my first in years. I'm looking forward to exploring this new journey.

[@Viperjjr]

These slingshots look like works of art. Amazing. 👏👏👏

[@marktownsend3093]

I'm so so glad you are making 90 mil frames in the axiom format now.

[@JonDough-412]

Me too! I have all wide fork scouts thus far. So to have to to carry in my pocket. It’s gonna be awesome! I haven’t seen the champ on the site. ????

[@nathangrueber9834]

Most beautiful slingshot shape hands down

[@forrestdaniels6382]

That’s a beautiful piece of work, Nathan.Much better than plastic.

[@precisionhunter9998]

I really enjoyed this video. I will certainly add this new Axiom to my collection. 👍

[@dizzydbonez1]

Love how slingshots are coming back. Zack Fowler got me hooked .

[@jmz5528]

I'm new to the slingshot scene, but have been floored by seeing the passion this community!

[@ImHereForYourArtStream]

This is one of my favorite slingshots and my first slingshot I ever bought. Highly recommended for beginners. You are an amazing artist,absolutely beautiful.

[@ericmueller1987]

You have created some beautiful slingshots Nathan. Injected is functional but nothing like natural beauty.

[@Rnwhite8]

Great video! I love the background information. When I was growing up I used to spend hours looking at all the handmade slingshots on flippinout, dreaming of the day I would one day hopefully be able to afford my own. When that day finally came, I reached out since they were no longer shown on the site, and was told Mr. Masters had stopped making them 😩. Regardless, I slowly built up a collection and have every polymer slingshot and a few metal ones that simpleshot has offered. I have slingshots from many other makers, many of which I adore, but I always come back to simpleshot. In my opinion no one has done more for the industry, and cares as much about what they produce as they do about the user experience. An easy recommendation for people who ask me what their first slingshot should be. Affordable quality that’s built to last. Thank you simpleshot.

[@adkhunter4746]

Fowler got us hooked, simple shot is the best in the business!

[@RyanFranklin-w8r]

Simple Shot is the best! This is one of the most fun hobbies I’ve ever picked up!

[@GrandWillowFarm-j6u]

I may or may not have been fortunate enough to see this little bad boy a week or so back from a friend. I’m impressed with the size and my friend is super impressed with the accuracy right out of the box with no tuning!

[@DebbieBaize-h8f]

Form, beauty, functionality, artistry, Simple Shot is a great company for all your slingshot needs. Nathan, thank you for the story behind the Axiom! Another fantastic sling shot!

[@pipingbeardsman9155]

Love the history! As an amateur slingshot maker, I find videos like these quite inspirational! Will make a great addition to any collection!

[@randycassidy198]

Great video man! I used to drool over the flippinout Maxim when you were using colored woods. You had a video on them that I watched 100 times. I would’ve bought one but my kids were 4 and 2 and my wife wasn’t having it. I’ve seen some here and there on eBay and they still bring good money. Thanks for all your contributions to the sport. Can’t wait to try the axiom!

[@mitchlbs]

I absolutely cannot wait! Changing bands quickly with a sleek layout is exactly what I have been wanting!

[@shanebanx9631]

These bad boys are so beautiful and effective it's awesome to see people taking pride in their craftsmanship!

[@redthornbushcraft1835]

it is awesome to see you building again, beautiful work!

[@mosesm.3431]

My brother and I both have the Axiom and it's our favorite, it 'points' the ammo so well! Thank you so much Nathan

[@joshdanforth1981]

Absolutely beautiful! Osage is a stunning material, and what a great story behind that particular piece of Osage.

[@ChonkTek]

Great company with amazing support and thoughtfully crafted products!

[@BigDudeSlings]

The most serious slingshot enthusiasts shined and polished those sling about 100 times thanks Mr Masters

[@Valkyri]

Loving this handmade slingshots! Works of art! Thanks for the chance!

[@Outdorsenit]

Really appreciate your sling shots! Gives one more way for me to connect with my daughters. So fun!

[@bikepacker1965]

Proud owner of a Flippin' Out Axiom - outstanding! Good to hear the backstory.

[@Adventure_Outdoors_with_Lucky]

That’s sick. I love the simplicity of it. Not needing a tool. I definitely hope to get myself one. You guys have started my hunting journey with the Scout X. I’m solid to your brand.

[@thetypicalcyclist499]

One of the most beautiful slingshot ive ever seen.

[@tomb8939]

Love the customs, both equally as beautiful as each other. Good work Nathan

Awesome video, I could listen to you talk for hours! Truly enjoyed the bit of history about these. Looking forward to getting my hands on one, and it would be an honor to be lucky enough to win one of those beautiful handmade slings, may the sling gods be in my favor. You’re a master builder, thank you for sharing your talent with the world.

Beautiful hand mades Nathan! Love the Axiom design and its origin story.

[@brandonlinkbullwhips]

Amazing slingshots! Everyone reading this comment should buy one!

[@k20z3]

Been looking for a sleek and durable slingshot for a very long time. This is a very simple design and I can't wait to get my hands on one of these.

[@slothgrande]

Love the backstories and history! You're clearly passionate about your craft and it shows. Can't wait to see what more you have in store for us!

[@JanSonnemann]

Adam, you are just shining from inside out! Great to feel your enthusiasm even through the digital transformation.

[@E.L.RipleyAtNostromo]

Awesome slingshots! SimpleShot has come a long way since I got that first Scout years ago!

[@luciaclapper279]

Excellent slingshot! The axiom is part of slingshot history.

[@irule10392]

I love hearing the history and thought processes behind the making of these functional art pieces.

[@Den34689]

Not only the beauty of the wood grain but I love the feel of the rounded edges! I don’t know why but I dislike sharp edges! Your creations are beautiful! Also thanks for sharing the history of your work!

[@Jazzberrytpt1]

I'm so looking forward to one of these. Simple shot makes the best slingshots available

I love Nathans passion for everything slingshots. It shows in all the products

[@TennesseeSlangin]

Beautiful work!

Cool to hear the backstory. Those customs are unreal. Hope whoever wins the Osage one can appreciate the history.

[@GremlinGaming-cw7zx]

I’m so glad they are releasing more beautiful slingshots

[@brianeggart]

Slingshots are the best and SimpleShot has been awesome!

[@grnpablano3428]

Love SimpleShot. Making life a little more enjoyable and igniting the good old memories down by the river bank. Custom work looks amazing to whoever is lucky enough to receive one.

[@coffeeandmelange4509]

Awesome that you're making and offering some customs along with the new production frames! These look great, love an OTT-only frame.

[@jermcontrol2367]

Simpleshot really is an unrivaled company when it comes to this sport.

[@UncleLarry59]

I knew Nathan started out making custom slingshots ....but... My Goodness , I had no idea how unbelievably beautiful they are. WOW !!! Impressive. 👍

[@doulos4Jesus]

OH MY GOSH! That Spalted Maple Slingshot is absolutely beautiful! I've never owned or shot a slingshot but now I want one. At 73, I'm still a kid inside!

[@tonykruger871]

They are all amazing looking slingshots . Great work .

[@Maxsirbu]

Thanks for making these slingshots.

[@ernesttaylor967]

Love the size. Bigger is better.

[@Benjalotus]

[@velocitas1]

Outstanding work on that Osage!

[@roastedbean1968]

[@chrisdurham7515]

Love the craftsmanship you put into your slingshots. enjoy hearing the history of the axiom

[@Homepeixe]

Wonderful craftsmanship Nathan I love these frames. Cheers🍻

[@exved7092]

Real good fun seeing behind the scenes after the fun I've been having with my first purchase.

[@donaldsperspective1973]

Great company, even better people. Always quality and always friendly. Good luck to everyone

[@tomsettle1163]

Love y’all’s products

[@pappappiledriver552]

Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship on the customs, and can’t argue with the almost spiritual calm that looking at a pleasing design can bring.

[@myagoss2289]

Your slingshots are seriously amazing!!

[@Munkeee_]

Can’t wait to try one out! Always great products

[@TheFowrk]

Came here for entries, but I genuinely enjoyed learning about the design evolution of the Axiom.

[@markberenbrok627]

Great work

[@nozacnozac]

I think they are all beautiful works of art. I have been collecting beautiful images of the Scout prototype, and I never get bored of looking at them. This video is very educational. I also make things by hand, but I think the shape of the Scout is the ultimate shape. I make them by imitating the shape of the Scout, but I think the maker's sense is reflected in the finished work. I still have a lot to learn.

[@johnhaertling9600]

I have had 2 surgeries on my right shoulder, one on my left, picking up a sling shot has been therapeutic for me and so much fun to do, I have been bitten by the slingshot bug and it’s an absolute blast, thanks to Nathan and staff for all the help and support.

[@simpleshot]

Glad to hear it's been therapeutic for you! :)

[@andregarai]

Great story and craftsmanship Nathan!
