What Is The Most Powerful Slingshot?

[@Optimusprime-ys3kb]

Please do a video with the hammer xt slingbow version

[@roncondron7462]

I have a torque sling shot and hitting good with it

[@FarmCreek86]

New sub, new flatbander. I use a slingshot as a reference for my recurve. Keeps me in “instinctive” practice. I don’t know why I never used flat bands before. Great content. Thank you sir.

[@411Outdoors]

Greatly appreciate it my friend and glad to be of service🙂👍

[@chrisedmonds8810]

I own the hammer Lt head and xt handle. I can run any band set the xt can handle. Just a thought. Love your video. I watch all the simple shot videos. I love it when he chronographs different band sets. I only use flatbands since watching him.

I noticed that retraction issue. I kept going with bigger bands then tryed a smaller one ..the smaller ones were much faster

[@kishascape]

Good call on the armored gloves. I accidentally speed bumped my scout and hit my index finger. Luckily it was with the clay balls but that sucker hurt. Reminded me of this video.

[@411Outdoors]

I cringe using my Torque with them narrow forks and ironically I shoot heavy on it. Definitely wearing gloves on that one. Prob will wear when using lead or steel on any frame. I’m going to be reviewing the torque X next week. It has wider fork.

Buddy!!👏👏👏 You're well aware that I love to point out any problems with long explanations. There's no need here, you're spot on! It's all about the bands. Asking what's the most powerful slingshot is like asking, what's the most powerful .22 rifle. It depends on what ammo you're stuffing in it. The rifle only needs to tolerate the force, fork in this case. I agree with the hammer as the best option for many reasons. The stability as mentioned is first. Second, no matter where your slinging experience takes you, the hammer will accommodate. Lastly, it has a wide gap, much easier to gain accuracy with. I won't bother going into the reasons for that, unless someone asks and they should feel free to do so. My style has evolved over time and settled on heavy bands at half butterfly. Make no mistake, it took a lot of training to pull those with no shaking and be accurate. Novices, take his advice and start with a short/face draw. Learn the basics and then gradually increase your draw length. With my setup, I shoot either 9.5 mm or 8 mm steel. If I need to reach out at extreme range, I'll use 8mm, knowing I'm not going to hit as hard or as accurately because of distance. Closer, 9.5 is the go to. I'm focused on hunting and a humane kill. That means I'd rather take my chances stalking closer and use my heavy ammo than risk a long shot and leave a critter to suffer. It appears I didn't avoid a long explanation, but that's my own failing and no argument against the points mentioned here. Have a great day buddy 👍

[@411Outdoors]

Thank you so much brother I always appreciate your input! You have very strong analytical skills🙂👍

[@nathangrueber9834]

I watched a utube add for band warmers!! I couldnt keep a straight face!! Just total disbelief?? Its like making a cup of tea and going to the top of mt everest and saying "but it was warm when i made it"?😂🤣😂

[@tylertapp131]

Good stuff, i played around with slingshots as a kid but never got serious about them. Now im starting to get more interested in them and looking for something simple, packable and reliable, to take out in the woods with me. My biggest interest with them now is small game hunting, mainly if opportunities arise. Ive been playin with rabbit sticks and slings this year some but wanna give the slingshot a chance aswell. So from what i gathered, and please correct me if in off, but basically i guess i need to get a wide forks, flat bands, style of slingshot then?

[@411Outdoors]

It varies. the bands, do determine the power. I do believe in having some wider forks if you’re shooting with a lot of power.

[@tylertapp131]

Finesse …is what i have been understanding….noticing the Ecclesiastical 3:1-8…”requirement for “discernment”, and understanding what is needed at what time in what way…but relying on the Spirit of Christ IS THE ONLY WAY, I have known this. “Walk with Christ” faithfully…

[@Crayz919]

Whats most powerful slingbow ?

[@411Outdoors]

It really comes down to the bands my friend. The frame doesn’t play too big of a part. Strong bands, strong bow

[@Crayz919]

I can imagine that's how it work the stronger the band the stronger the bow ! Not really rocket science but I figured you might have knowledge of what slingbow is the best and most powerful that u can purchase for big game hunting ! I know of Chief AJs elite slingbow but didn't know if there were others in 2024 I hadn't heard about...

Mate all you need is a lee precision smelter pot, Lee, Marty's, Lyman or Russian Svarog or AS moulds and a mate who's a roofer haha or as I do, a spot of roofing myself. Bubba Roundtree/ Wade will teach you the little you need to know about casting. Just bought a Hammer XT from America on your recommendation and a 1inch, 1mm sheshou band from Cattyshak in the UK :)

[@nathangrueber9834]

Power is the ability to do work. It can be fast; slow rotational; linear. I use 4x 3/8" tubes with ritating cams. 14lb draw. For lead 9mm 3/8". Or marbles. But wouldnt use it for 2/8 steel. But the energy might be the same. No such think as "the most powerfull". Water is powerfull but not sitting in a tea cup.

[@411Outdoors]

Yep and I think that’s what this video communicates and that is everything just depends. Theres no boxing in the most powerful anything. What is the most powerful slingshot is just a question people ask.

[@nathangrueber9834]

@@411Outdoors very true.

[@nathangrueber9834]

@@411Outdoors yea i use 4 heavy tubes and counterweights rotating cam forks bla bla bla. People say thats some serious power. But its not. I want at least twice this grunt. But cant find tubes. The counterweights have nothing to do with producing power; its to stop any rotatiinal forces wasting what potential is already there. Even small things like taking too long to aim cools your bands down. Sime silly people use band warmers??😁😂🤣 seems a good idea but then hafta put them on slingshot ?? Durrrr!!😜

[@toddwhitley442]

The Saunders Pro X wrist rocket folds up compact but when it is open the double flat bands extend to butterfly length draw at your anchor point by the mouth. It also protects your hand when shooting darts. It is designed to shoot at least a .45 cal lead ball but recommends .50 cal lead.

[@411Outdoors]

Very good information thank you so much!

[@greekveteran2715]

Is the Saunders pocket Eagle II a good slingshot please? Or get a Barnet instead? I only have used cheaper ones with tubes so far and I want to upgrade.

[@toddwhitley442]

@@greekveteran2715 I only know of the Pro X. You want to stick with flat bands. Simple shot has several good slingshots for around $35

Than sale the too heavy Bow and buy a less Powerful one😁after that move it works most of the Time but hey we all Humans so dont be so strikt on that ! I find out that Flatbands are right for me and less Power is better for my shooting! Lesson learnd so i can grow better in that Sport and last but not least have more fun!

[@TrevcatCarroll-iv3te]

Good information. I've met and camped with Nathan and Can. Also communicate with Chuckin quite a lot and we've all done some trading. But I think you're leaving out one very good sling manufacturer. Saunders archery. They were the very first to make the wrist rocket and have been in business since 1954. I've spoken with Chuck Saunders often. So check out the pro X, Wing and even the falcon from Saunders archery. I've done a review on the pro X on my KZbin channel. Take care brother 👍

They’re just my favorite. And they’re somewhat local. The only other company that I can compare to them is snipersling but I’m an American. They don’t sponsor my videos, but they do pay me affiliate commission. I signed up for their affiliate program. So there ya go. I was screaming their name long before that though.

[@coobye]

@@411Outdoors No worries mate. When you're new to anything these days it's hard to get a genuine review vs a biased sponsored review so just asking. I already have a Scout LT2 in my Simpleshot cart. Just figuring out if it'll get through customs to distopian Australia without getting confiscated.

TURKEY DAY is here! I’m jealous you are getting to wear a jacket and hat. Here on the Gulf Coast of Texas, that usually doesn’t happen until January. 🤷‍♂️ When I was kid, we were pretty adept at choosing particular rocks as ammo. We knew which ones would fly straight and flat, ones that will curve left or right, etc. Is that even done anymore? Happy Thanksgiving, Bud!
