Only had one catapult before, which a bought with my pocket money when I was kid. It lasted two days before I put a stone though next door neighbours bathroom window and it was confiscated, so was my pocket money for a long time! Things have sure progressed and at £24 so has the price too but I am always happy to pay a bit more to support a British company, cheers Alan
Yaaaa buddy!! Been shooting for over 2 years now thanks to guys from UK. Good seeing bub!! Big hugs from New Hampshire! Bug Out Brad Wasp is sweet company! I have 3 top frames now. All OTT. My eye gave out 2 months ago and needed surgery. Almost lost my right eye. Healing and just started shooting again last week. Stay safe bub!
Hello Brad brother! I’ve got to catch up with your channel again!!! Yeah it’s great fun and not an expensive hobby for people to get into! Great to hear from you again! I hope you’re eye is on the mend! That’s one thing that does scare me is the thought of losing my sight! Take care my brother 👍🏻👍🏻👌🏽🙏🏼😎
Bub! And sir, you're right about the basic principles of slingshot. Only other things are your grip on the ball in the pouch, and your release. Pinch the pouch just on the ball, so the pouch is open, and your ball doesn't have to skip over a finger on its way out, throwing the shot.
That's a great set up Brother 🇺🇸💯🇬🇧 I've never tried the flat bands. I can definitely hear the difference between the two types of ammo. It's always good to see you out in the woods. Sending much love to you and the Mrs 💯🙏
Hello brother! Great to hear from you again! It’s a bit of fun to mess around with lol… I think I’ll stick to my rifle for putting food on the table with though 😂…. Hope you’re doing well over there! Love and respect from us both as always brother 👍🏻👍🏻😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👌🏽🙏🏼❤️
I'm an air gun shooter myself & just 🎉decided to get Wasp Uni phoxx with yellow 18/12 .60 bands for when I'm out on a walk along the canal with my poggy. I just hope I can hit something without shooting my hand off ✌️💥
Same me mate I shoot rifles too, but the slingshot is fun and with practice it can make an effective way to put some meat on the plate. Hope you enjoy yours mate 👍🏻👍🏻👌🏽😎
Thanks brother! I’m not any good with these things that’s for sure, I’m sure I could improve with practice but it’s just a matter of time! Great fun to play around with anyway. Yeah definitely dust yours off and get slinging brother 🤗🤗👍🏻👍🏻😎 best wishes my friend
Hi Andy. Might be my forst time commenting on your chanel but I'm a good friend of Grasshopper. Have you looked at optimising your band length for your draw? Its something to look into. Makes for more accurate, comfortable and powerful shooting. Look into it! I have a Wasp Enzo and whilst it was frustrating at first I love shooting it now.
I’ll definitely look into it mate thank you! I only play at it but it’s always good to learn and improve, so I’ll take your advice and do some research. Welcome over to my channel by the way. Grasshopper is a great fella and I hope he doesn’t mind me calling him my friend. Very best wishes mate 👍🏻👍🏻😎
@Mad Dog Survival Certainly is a great guy! And have fun with the catty! It's great fun, low cost and (insert eye roll) fairly less threatening/ offensive way of enjoying a plinking type of hobby.
Hey, mate! Good, fun video! Yeah, I started playing around with the flat bands a few years ago and really enjoy it when I can in some practice. I know what you mean about how things go when you are recording. You handled it like a champ and with good humor. See you on the next one my friend!
Thanks mate! Lol… every time I record anything it never goes well 🙄😂😂… yep these are definitely fun and with practice are an effective tool for putting meat on the plate! Very best wishes brother 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Alright Andy had another watch to check out the name of your catapult, hope you're well mate, I stumbled upon a great little channel the other day a young fella getting out catching and cooking with his catapult, he's a cracked shot, certainly able to fill his freezer. (geodie carnivore). 😁👍🏻
@@MadDogSurvival I only wish I had those skills, we yous't to make catapult's with lazzie band's of the posty, I was pretty accurate with these I thought, I suppose I'll have to get accustomed to using these flat one's.
It’s just getting enough time to practice mate, it’s like anything the more you put in the more you get out. I’m sure the hours and days go more quickly than they used to lol…. 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Nice. I need to get a slingshot for my pack. I mean I'm in the USA so I need something to hunt with when I run out of bullets after I use my gun to cut down trees for a shelter
Price aside do you prefer the tube or the flat band better? With myself I can get a heavier pull with flat bands by doubling or tripling up my bands over the tube. I'm not sure if it's legal for you to attach a whisker bisket to it so you can shoot arrows but if you can it's a lot of fun too. Thanks for sharing. God bless and stay safe.
I think with more practice and time I will prefer the flat bands, they just seem to deliver more wallop! Not sure about the legalities of the arrow attachments but I’m sure I could have a little experiment out of sight either way 😂😂🤫🤫….thanks for your support and input and brother! Very best wishes 👍🏻👍🏻😎
I have always loved Slingshots and shooting with them, amazing how they have evolved and those wasp’s look awesome for sure. Love that centering dot 👍🏻 I haven’t ever tried shooting the clay balls, is there much weight difference between steel & clay ? I would imagine so and as I have shot many different things through slingshots over the years it has seemed to make a bit of difference in hitting my targets with needed power and aim. Great Shooting Brother 🙌🏻 Always a pleasure seeing ya out in your element enjoying Blessings and love to you and the Mrs ❤️🔥❤️🔥🙏🏻🙏🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Thanks sister! Yea they have come a long way! The clay balls are a lot lighter than the steel ones and yes placement is very different! The clay balls have a much higher elevation path at similar distances. All good fun though 🤗🤗 thanks for your watching and support as always! Hope you’re doing well 🙏🏼👍🏻👍🏻😎 much love to you from us both ❤️
Andy i am so chuffed that you got a wasp frame its night and day compared to the black widow with flat bands you get higher fps for a lighter draw weight as long as you match the ammo to the band thickness and taper along with a higher degree of accuracy but in a survival situation tubes are way more resilient to wear and outlast flatbands happy shooting brother ❤️✌️
Thank you my mate! Yes they are a massive improvement! It’s just my inexperience with this newer model that shows here the actual catapult is spot on! Thanks for your feedback i appreciate it mate 👍🏻👍🏻😎👌🏽
I’m no expert either brother! All I can say is that I only have experience with old fashioned type slingshots and these modern designs are way better! I don’t think you will go far wrong with anything made by wasp! They all have great reviews and if you’re a beginner will be more than adequate to learn your craft! Very best wishes mate 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Great things to keep in your bag when you're decent with one. It would be a great way for me to lose weight taking one into the woods to catch my tea 😂 I'm well out of practice now and blind as a bat. Good shooting mucca 😁👍🏻
Hello mate, there are quite a few to choose from on eBay, and there are some templates online too if you’re wanting to make your own. I’m no catapult expert brother so I’m afraid my help here is very limited. I’ll pop a link below to one available on eBay. Very best wishes my friend 👍🏻👍🏻😎 www.ebay.co.uk/itm/295695025040?hash=item44d8cc0390:g:qeYAAOSwRi9kWq1v&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4HTa%2F%2BrFPe8e%2FuA41U%2BntEep671VznKf7nTWz%2FHPihaBWFyi78w4%2BoI0x8r5XPYW2iIKw5j5P0jb5w%2Fg178HlI7dms6cBrGXrm1u4zaHghxvlS50M9hvTsACZDOqr6c4bvvPPwf7OxUHs5oyVML6JXs7M9zjyMNijWrRanktE3sBwzGEGMO01OqCe9YmTOn5cs7096CLjWF2lrdO8t3680fCOKhREZoOMCJLe2r4f7Tvcb4jlnjJm4KiL5ZwGv2C6ak9WHRnNlPhRQBS6gcPYC%2Bz8tkVk3IGYrQ24g2H0lOD%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR5yBm9qEYg
Great shooting mate you should keep up a bit of practice with the right ammo and band/taper you could be deadly with that i started shooting cattys in January its good fun and a good weapon to know how to use
Thanks very much mate! Yep it’s great fun for sure and I hope I’ll get good enough eventually to take a squirrel or two, but I’m a long ways off from that yet lol…. Best wishes my mate 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Not as yet mate, but on the wasp it’s very easy to do, you just have to losen the enzo clamps and rotate them to the sides, and re tighten them with your bands in. Even I can do it lol… so should be no problem for anyone. Best wishes mate 👍🏻😎

Great job Andy. You shot way better than I could have. Brought back childhood memories. God Bless

Dead-eye Andy! I need to get my slingshot out and brush up on my slinging. Nice video!

There are a lot more band choices with flat bands. Thank you for the great review, Andy. Stay safe and stay cool
Thanks brother! yep definitely a lot of choice for sure, I will have to experiment with other bands. Best wishes mate 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Wow, looks like a lot of fun. I've never tried a catapult. I just got into archery. Maybe a future learning task.
Thanks sister! Yes I’ve seen your archery video the technique is really the same. The anchor point is vital! Very best wishes my friend 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Itll improve your archery!! Hold and technique very similar! Its also a quiet hunting tool.
