And that’s what it’s all about! Great vid 👍🏻 we useto use pebbles from are local rocky beach which has the most perfect round shape stones about the size of a small marble was what we’d collect and with roughly a matched band and a smaller more round shape stone you’d be surprised just how accurate u can be, I still know one old poacher who uses them and hey he’s still alive and healthy with a good meal every day from those pebbles 👍🏻
When i was a kid stones or old marbles. Got back in 2 the sling after a long long time but some days im average but most real poor Shot. Must be age lol won't give up . Cheers from wales.uk. Great info & you are a good shot bro.
Like taking s step back in time , great fun. So slow is better, interesting, would like to see more examples using Simple Shots band selection, I know I’m wanting you to do all the work, guilty as charged, but your knowledge and skill is by far better then most here , thanks
You know your sport, good job. It is funny with rocks as you will get an oblong/pill shape that fits the pouch and it might fly straight and true. I always try to avoid knife edged rocks and stick to at least more cube-ish & pill. Your pouch is right on. I believe many slingshot shooters have a tendency to over power their ammo.
Very nice shots Man Rock shooting is the oldest way to shoot with a Slingshot and in my opinion it is a good way to have fun without let Amunition of Mettal or Plastic in the Nature and its Amunition for free!!! Another way to have good Amonition that is Earth friendly is to make it out from Clay and let it dry it is more accurate because it is round but Rocks are good too thank You for showing Greetings from Germany God bless You and Your beloved ones Javor🇩🇪😉
Catty (slingshot) Is best.. When you can't Or dont want to buy a gun!! And you like camping.. Spending time in the woods!! Also it's great for hunting, even in self defense!! So i myself.. I keep one in my house.. I also keep airguns and stuff!! Nice vid sir ❤ Love from india 🇮🇳 ❤ Here you know.. Guns are kinda hard to get!! 😅!!
Fantastic and very informative Dan, thank you for posting this . Do you think the bags of smallish river Rock like Home Depot carries would be any more accurate than yard stones ?

Badly needed: instructional vid on meaningful, progressive practice - from beginning (hitting a barn door), to hitting a 1” target at 10 M..., i.e. *how* to practice!
If you kill it, eat it...excepting maybe rats. A good code to live by.

Thanks! There's not too many instruction vids out there concerning rocks. Myself, I suck with rocks, but I'll test your method and hope to improve 👍
You taught me a lot. I'm making good progress to shoot rocks after watching your video several times. Thanks a lot!
My choice of ammo was a good round pebble before I got on to lead and steal and good shooting as well

Good job! Rocks are definitely hard to put on target.
Great stuff brother thanks for sharing !
I shoot rocks too. The rocks go way above the treetops. It can shoot more than 200 feet up

Great information Dan
Rocks work really well even when they're not round.

Every thing I shoot came from a bag from Lowe's. Definitely the way to go for home practice
Nice slingshot. How did you finish the frame?
Dan i was wondering what a good taper for about a 30 inch draw length with .30 latex using .44 lead and 1/2 steel would be for squirrels
1and 1/8 to 7/8 inch. I wouldn't have an extreme taper with that heavy of ammo.
Ok thank you what about using 3/8 steel going at some where from 250 to 300 fps still asking for a taper from .30 latex please
