    I very much appreciate the detail you went into here John. While I have gone over it numerous times I gnored the point of attaching the the OTT band to the pouch as you describe. I picked up a TitanHunter M95 TTF recently from Chris and have been doing alot of practce learning how to shoot TTF. I put a TTF band set on my OTT EVO V1 and you'd of thought I just started in this sport. Could not group consistently to save my life. Of course, I'm thinking how could it make that big of a difference. So long story short, tied an OTT bandset up and installed it. WTF Total suprise. Consistant groups at 3 centimeters no problem. Thanks again for your timely instruction.

      In all honesty if the anchor and references are the same the band will shoot the same every time….
      If your are putting a OTT elastic on a TTF frame or vice versa the band will have a twist in it….
      As with everything in Slingshots it’s down to preference but why have a twist in the band if u don’t have to hahah….
      Happy shooting 🎯💯👻

    Nice video John, those bands you just made are the tidiest I’ve ever seen. I remember years ago when me and me family first started getting into the sport, we’d help each other out make bands, this is in the good ole days when weird Joerg sprave first started knocking abaowt mind. Anyways when we used to make them we’d have like four of us making one band everyone holding a different piece of the band set. Two of us nipping and stretching like a mil of rubber going blue in the face and another two wrapping and tucking with bout 40 turns and fkn ell to see you do it yourself make it look a piss a piss made me laugh. Hey when you going to make another sea fishing video. Let us see you catch a whopper flounder, I’ve heard some of the estuarys down southwest are unreal. Keep up the good work mate

    After 45years of air rifle shooting and hunting I fancied trying a slingshot but what I thought was a simple start up isn't.
    For a total beginner where do I start...OTT or TTF. Then it's what bands and finally ammo. Any advice would be greatly appreciated 😀

      Start cheap with light bands is all I can recommend buddy…. Maybe a frame that shoots both OTT & TTF (universal tips) so u can try both styles…. Unfortunately as a complete starter it is really a bit of trial and error till you find what suits you best….. cheers

    I experience bad middle finger slaps after the ball leaves the pouch and was wondering if you can give a tip what's going wrong. Maybe my ammo is too light ? Draw length is 74cm.

    Man, you need to make up your mind ! 1 - Few years ago, on the ttf bands you were doing things totally different, when tying the bands on the pouch. I was wondering why you were doing it like that, when it was much more simple and efficient like you are doing it now ( I do it the same since 7 year old ). 2 - You said few years ago that your active length is "Exactly 14,5 at all your sling shots (80cm : 5,5cm = 14,5 cm ). Now you're saying that your active length is 17 cm ( 17 cm × 5,5 cm = 93,5 cm ). Did you change your active length ??! It means you don't pull back to the corner of your mouth anymore, and you are pulling back a lot more if you are using 17 cm active length. Am I right ? Don't get me wrong man, I appreciate what you are doing, and your advices are great, but need to be more careful man. Some people might get confused. Jesus man, make up your mind !
