You just said in your previous upload, to never use a slingshot with tubes, and now one of your 3 favorites has tubes. I am confused...
@danielcharbonneau2226 жыл бұрын
Ya that makes two of us. Earlier video said that shooting with tubes is not accurate what so ever and everyone should only use flat bands not tubes. Now I'm confused on what's good and what's not.
@mitchellsnyder95856 жыл бұрын
I think what he meant specifically was that wrist rocket style slingshots with tubes aren't so hot. I'll agree, never could get consistant with my old tubed wrist rocket.
@FowlersMakeryandMischief6 жыл бұрын
shoot I should clarify that they ate in acurit but at 10 to 15 feet shooting stuf out of the air with smaller tubing they work good anything over that the speed shooters are slow and more and more inaccurate

Daniel Charbonneau I ordered the torque from simple shot using black latex tubes and my shots do fly all over the place but with practice and better consistency, I can hit a tin can from 20 or 30 feet with ease. Theraband strips can make shooting a whole lot better but I find tubes way easier to make and the gap between the forks for attaching the tubes is very convenient.

This is my first time watching anything you have produced, and I’m hooked. I’ve had “wrist rockets” since I was a kid but I’ve never gotten “seriously into” slingshots. Now I totally want to! I’ll very likely be picking something to start out with from your offerings and ordering from you. Thanks!

These are some nice slingshots , Here in Sinaloa we make the forks from cacaragua trees as the wood is very tough , than we use rubber banda to tie the rubber tubes on and we usually wrap the rubber bands with denim, than we get leather from like an old pair of boots for the lesther pad , and we shoot with rocks lol a bit more primitive but its very exciting to make one

Been looking for a simple ranged weapon for basic defense. A bow is big and a little bulky, plus it'd take a few seconds more than would be practical. A crossbow is also too big to just carry. A pistol is expensive (for a decent one) and cleaning/maintenance and ammo costs aren't ideal. This led me to thinking of letting my inner Bart Simpson out. Haven't used a slingshot since I made one out of a rubber band and a stick when I was 7. Been out of the slingshot loop for 20 years, lol. Definitely subscribing

Hey Fowler I'm leaning more towards being able to hunt small game(anything up to large hare or piglets) and seeking advice 1) lead or coated lead shot vs steel shot 2) size shot? 3) single or stacked flat bands? 4) Latex vs Thera band Gold in durablity, longevity. Thanks

How i learned was buy a slingshot, and 1000 3/8ths ball bearings and built a catch box. I took a spinner blade for making fishing lures and put it on a cable attached to the catch box and I stood about 20 feet away and just fired until I went through the 1000 ball bearings. Then I did it again the next night And again the night after that by 3000 I had it figured out extremely well.
