Actually one of the best tutorials on the tube. Recently started shooting and was getting frustrated, but this has cleared a lot up especially which eye to close and aim with. Thanks and keep one step ahead of that covid crap
This is the best instruction video I have seen yet. Thank you very very much. If I had seen this earlier I would have saved more than two hundred dollars.
This has to be the best tutorial on you tube. I finally understood how to shoot OTT. Thank you so very much
Thank you
Brilliant thanks Joefe you tutorial has really improved my shooting i watch this over and over again
No problem tom thanks for watching
Class this mate, one of the best I’ve watched, cheers👍🏼
Thank you very much, I'm going to start practicing with your method. greetings from Argentina
Been watching a few of these videos lately on CZcams and this is by far the best, none of the others cover the anchor point like you did which i think is the last piece of the puzzle for me
Cheers mate
Got a Lot! Out of this.. Can’t wait for my Cats to come in the mail, thanks great tutorial
Nice video instructions the last time hi shot a catapult was when hi was 14 in my days you could not buy catapults
You had to make them we use to buy the old black squire lastick in eather 1/4 or 3/16 then search for a good fork
In edge row wish hi could go back to my childhood it was so much fun him to old now at my age to be shooting
catapults
Tq for the tutorial. I have been shooting high for months. How I aim is putting the reference point low. After watching ur vid. I adjusted my anchor point n now its spot on. Tqvm!!!
Thats good
Excellent 👍👍 I'm on week 4 , and Your videos help alot! I've narrowed it to a couple of My favorite tubers. The goal is 5 on a quarter from 30 ' Keep up the great work Gangsta 🤜🤛.
Thanks for this video. Of all the videos on slingshot aiming I’ve seen (and there are many) this is the only one to actually explain the effect that moving your anchor point has when it comes to hitting your target high or low. I look forward to using this information to correct my always having to aim below my target because I seem to hit high.
Thanks a lot chris I'm glad it has helped
Oh my god. This is a revelation. The revelation. This is the missing piece in the jigsaw puzzle for me. Just had a quick plink and what a difference it makes. Knowing how to adjust for height means I can now aim at a target and hit a target, instead of aiming below it. Thanks, again, for a great video.
@@chriswheatley71 that's brilliant I'm so glad it has helped
Crackin stuff joefe.
Look forward to the next videos!
Inspiring stuff mate
Thank you Tim 😊
Thanks Joefe very Tutorial lol you had s job saying that word . Well documented yes it’s all about stance and practice spot on, thumbs up 👍
Yes I do tony lol thanks mate
Hace poco comencé a ver tus videos. Sinceramente eres muy didáctico. Agradezco mucho tu técnica para mejorar lo que yo hago instintivamente. Gracias.
Great video I'm new to this so this was fantastic, will keep practicing 👍👍
This helped me a lot.Thanks for the share...
Thank you so much for this video! You have explained it the best so far. All you need is better video... I believe your camera lens has fingerprint marks... Resulting in a hazy video.
Very well explained!sometimes it’s hard for new shooters to take everything in that’s been explained on utube vids but this is spot on 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎯
Thank you very much
Joefe slingshot Hunting if people take in what your saying and stick at it they will for sure improve there shooting ability cheers bud 👍🏻

Great vid! Lots of good advice ! Thanks !
Thanks tim
Another excellent tutorial video. Anyone who fancies having a go with a catty will learn from this. Watch it over and over again....don't give up...practice, practice, practice! Very important point made ,is don't think you can just go out and get some dinner straight away. You need to be putting that ammo near, next to ,or through the same hole, every shot. Another point made on this clip is "I'm no expert" 😂😂....course you ain't! 😉
Some heavy piking kit on the shed wall mate? The size of that lure on one? You sure you only been at it couple of yrs?? Great work Joe. 🤝
Thanks lol yes that big lure got me two pike last week thanks for your message my friend
@@Joefeslingshot gonna have a go for pike this weekend hopefully. Theres a lock, a weir pool and a bridge within 200 m stretch of the river Medway. Some big pike in there. Just hope the river goes down a bit after all this rain. I'll let you know how I get on Joe. 👍🏻🤝
@@jimmy66603 yes please
@@Joefeslingshot no worries mate. Drove over the bridge on way home hour ago. Its pushing through fast. So I'll wait and see. Still plenty of time though mate...we're only just into March. The biggn's will be feeding. But like I said before Joe?... I deffo wont be bringing one home for the pan! 🤢🤮...🤣🤣
Hello from Canada ..Great vid! I would assume band type and size make a difference as well seem to have an issue with this as a new person what bands would you recommend.
Great video just what I need to learn from
Nice job! Enjoy your hunting videos as well. Looking forward to the survival videos.
Thank you
Thanks you Bos.. Super your target action...👍👍👍
Another great video yet again looking forward to the bushcraft video
Thanks mark
Any advice on first slingshot,I’ve been looking at the wasp enzo and the simple shot scout lt,and is there any benefit to shooting ttf over ott.thank you
Quality video.hopefully be able to hit a barn door now with practice. Thanks
Thanks James
Hi. What band set you using and what you recommend for 9.5mm?. I have ppmg and ppmg+ use tbg 27/22 tapered. One of the best how to video on here 👍
Will it be a different in accuracy for a ott slingshot between twisting the pouch vs not twisting the pouch when release ?
Well presented. I may have a go.
Very good video, thanks 👍
Exellent vid pal, watched a few and this is up there with the best, atb john
Thank you so much
Thank you mr joefe.. thanks for making a good informatic video... Love from india...
Your welcome saleem
Joefe slingshot Hunting ,as I wrote if I had found you earlier, I would of saved more than two hundred dollars because I just bought a fancy laser sighted one. Thank you again ,hope to watch you get more and more accurate.
Some good tips especially for beginners 👍
Thanks john
cracking video joe found it really helpful how do you work out the length of bands i would need and would it be the same for tubes thanks for sharing
hi adrian thanks for watching, first measure your draw length tip of the frame back to your anchor point then divide that number by six
so if your draw length is 30inch divide by six will make it 6 inch active band cut same with tubes
mines 38 so roughly 7 inch active for me
Another good video mate, top man 👍
Thanks jack
Helo friend super video.👍👏👏👏👏 Thank you.👍
Love your video ❤❤
Thank you 👍🏼
Hey mate I am right handed and my right eye is my dimanet eye which hand do I use to hold my catapult in and what eye do I use to aim with I see people holding there catapult with there left hand and aim with the right eye witch way is the correct way mate please help me out. And I love watching all your videos you are a spot on shooter
Sir! Can you kindly make a video on normal wood tree fork slingshots. Their aiming, reference points and shooting
Hallo from Italy 👋 great video! 👍
Good job
nice video
TOP MAN there👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.....a great channel (to which I’ve just subscribed).......if you see this msg you might consider a short vid on the issue of pouch release.....(I know it’s not a one size fits all) but you might just offer a nugget of valuable info to some of us aspiring marksmen.....
Hello and thanks no proplem i shall do that.
@@Joefeslingshot ...hey!!!thanks for the reply.... AND looking forward to that vid.... Cheers bud🖐️
Welcome, bro I'm already subbed!👍👍👍😉😉😉🎯🎯🎯 And my shooting style is full butterfly gangster style.
Very good video Joefe
Thanks Ben
Hi thank you for your videos. Can you recommend a cattie for new beginners like my self
Brilliant video just getting into it some great advice 👍 by the way what fleece is that.. real tree ?
Thanks mate.
yes it's real tree
what thickness of rubber bands do you use?
I'm right handed and have been holding my catapult with my left hand and putting my left foot forward and closing my left eye.
Question on ott pinching the ball shooting gangster should I have my thumb nail facing up or to my face?
I am your fyan sir
When shooting "over the top" is the reference point on the catapult the top corner ? Also, how do you adjust for elevation on a longer distance shot, is it just trial and error?
Yes. OTT is Top corner. You can alter the elevation in two ways. By using holdover like you would with an air rifle at longer range. But you lose your reference point on the target with that method. The best way to adjust your elevation is by raising or lowering your usual anchor point. EG: if you draw to the corner of your mouth and your shots are going high, raise your anchor point. Vice versa if you shooting low.
@@jimmy66603 Thanks
Spot on 👍
Thanks steve
Excellent vid joe, I’m looking forward to the others. Can I ask what the catch box was in a former life or is it custom made ?.
Thanks Richard the catch box was a kfc bin lol I found ;)
I think I’ll have to find myself one of those 😉😄
@@SANDYBANK1000 😂😂😂😂👍
I have a sling shot I bought and it came with 1632 tubes what size tubes do you recommend for serious hunting I have been look at the 204-1842-1745-2050-2055-3060 which one of these size tube do you recommend and ammo nice video as always
Good video 👏
thank you
Do you recommend the ppsg as really like them and what the best bands
Ppsg is a great frame so is the bigger ppmg version bands depend on what you are doing hunting at targets but a great all rounder is thera band good straight 22mm cut
The PPSG is a lovely little frame. Be prepared for some fork hits until you master it. Don't give up though, trust me. Once you get used to it, it will become part of your hand. Deadly accurate once mastered. I've got a PPSG and a PPMG....I can only speak for myself, but for me it's the PPSG all day long. It goes everywhere with me...and I mean everywhere.
Thank be ordered soon. Also be used for hunting
Great video, What catch box make is that?
Thanks the catch box is a kfc bin
Nice
So it’s kind of like archery, just a lot smaller.
At what distance were you shooting from? Also, for accuracy shooting, should I stay away from clay balls and just use steel or lead? Thanks
Distance is 10 meters
Steel ammo is the best for accuracy and consistency 9.5mm or 10mm both great for practice and hunting once your confident enough to take game
@@Joefeslingshot Thanks for the reply Joefe, I appreciate it!
@@fishingbuddyph8786 any time keep me updated with your progress
@@Joefeslingshot I will. :-)
Great video mate I have always been told to find your dominate eye and use that same as shooting a shot gun?
Thanks Tim
Tim, you're correct - see my "comment" of today.
THWACK!
Gday from Australia where have you gone you haven’t put any vids up for ages missing them
Hi ive damaged my shoulder but im on the mend will be uploafing soon
Joefe slingshot Hunting should be a lot of pheasant about this time of year if I remember
@@Pomybasterd october they get released so november is the perfect time
Do you move anchor point over distances.?
If I'm shooting ttf yes
That was really good. Really benefitted from that video. Appreciate your time and effort to go thru it all. Do flat bands or round bands matter? I bought a Daisy slingshot as a start but all the experts and pros are using the flat bands so wondered if I should switch to get used to the best/preferred equipment for the long run. Thanks again! Subscribed!
Thank you
Flat bands are best especially for long term
hi pal what ammo are you shooting iv bin shooting 8mm lately
7mm
I hope this helps me to shoot propley
I'm right handed but put my left foot forward and use my right hand to draw the band and use my right eye for sighting. I'm just learning. It just feels more natural. Is this wrong ?
No your doing it right what ever you are comfortable with Steven hope you stick to it it sure is a great sport to learn
@@Joefeslingshot Thanks for the reply and the encouragement Joefe. I'm going to keep going with it . Really enjoying the sport. ATB mate.
Top video 👍👍👍
Thank you John
Interesting how you two seem to have opposite advice: czcams.com/video/VCyM7u9gYu4/video.html
You: fixed aim hand and move your anchore hand
John: fixed anchore hand and move your aim hand.
Guess I will have to try both and see what works for me...
I'm right handed (srongest) but always hold the frame in my left hand and pull the pouch in the right while closing the left eye.
Am I doing it all wrong?
No thats right mate
i have access to a band saw and a router scrollsaw and mitter saw what would be the best sling shot to make? please answer????????????????????
Google slingshot templates you can print some of to cut around
thanks alot
Hi Joe. I've just started to shoot catapults a couple of weeks ago and I have a question that I was hoping you could answer for me please. Basically, at present I only shoot OTT and my anchor point Is by the edge of my of my right lip using my right hand. The problem Is that I wear glasses, and If my shots are going high I can't really move my anchor point up because my glasses are In the way. Any advice please Joe? Do I just move the frame down slightly Instead?
I've also just subscribed to your channel and I am looking forward to watching your vidoes In the near future
Cheers mate 👍
Call it Gangster because in films u see Gansters especially rap hip pop gansters fire the Gun on its side.
Are you still going to make a video on what's inside your slingshot box
Yes I Will I promise
Its addictive.end of...love hittin them pheasants no better feeling
for got I also have a mitter saw
Did you know the Goblet EVO OTT is actually designed to shoot with wrist straight and not cocked back,?!!. You can obviously do both methods bit a straight wrist is desired
👏👏👏👍👍👍
If you have a chroney how fast would a 30mil staright cut bandset go with 9.5mil steel
I don't have one Rob but I will get one and let you know soon
@@Joefeslingshot oh ok well thanks alot could you recommend a bandset with tbg that will let me shoot 9.5mil steel out to about 10 meter with no drop
@@robellenberger6816 I found 22mm start cut very good up to 15m with tbg and will last a long time rappers don't last long at all witch annoys me I've killed and won may trophys with that set up I've taken game up to 40m (lucky shots) lol with that set up
@@Joefeslingshot ive tried them but they usally drop off by 8 meters
@@robellenberger6816 really? Is it cold where you live?
And how long are your bands you will need to max your bands out at your anchor point
Sir I like ur tips I use opposite of Gangster style of holding catapult but still I m not so good in aiming , I use a stone as amo. Can u help me out why steel amo people use for aiming . I m from India
Steel ammo gives a smoother flight path its a consistent ammo that weighs the same every time and is the same size and shape, the inconsistency and shape in stones or rocks will change the flight of your ammo making the shot harder to replicate consistently
@@Joefeslingshot oh great tips sir, if I can make ammo out of mud clay would it be ok.
@@AnubhavAnkitGeorge for targets yes not for hunting
@@Joefeslingshot thank you sir. So can u tell sir how much distance it's good. Or upto how many meters is it accurate. I m new to this styles of catapult we use very primitive type of catapult with heavy band with smooth stone. So I m asking u. Well I m more interested in fishing , I too upload snakeheads fishing video in my channel. While wtaching ur tips my eyes was on your fishing rods to see what u catch.
@@AnubhavAnkitGeorge 10m im going fishing in a moment
Salut sa serai bien que tu traduit en français car on aimerai bien comprendre ce que tu dit ...merci
why would you close your dominant eye???
Christ that's some rat in your garden 😉 it excellent video and hopefully very helpful, time to practice now.
Very helpfull, thanks a lot. Next days i'll start my exercises, and i hope i will be so perfect like you. Bt i think that's will b a long way😏 By the way, my english is not perfect, sorry. I've learned this language for about 40 years in school, that's a long time...
Sounds great keep in touch on your progress and your english is fine
@@Joefeslingshot Thanks a lot for all your fast answers, the friendly words and your help!👍
Bro I fire exactly same as you,?, hold in right arm ammo in the left,?, doesn't mean folk are right left handed at shooting,?.We see many that hold with left opposite to us,?, and are right but not left handed ,? Does not matter,? its just how we feel comfortable.
Yes 100%
Very nice video sir please hindi audios sar I am from Varanasi sir please
you need to watch the dog chab..coz of the bounce backs...na mean???
Gangsta is to do with the way gangsters hold a pistol
Yes your right does this mean I'm a gangster lol
Catapults have been around since 400 BC . Pistols haven't. Wannabee gangsters who hold there toy pistol 'gangsta style' learnt it from our ancestors who could shoot the ears off a rat at 20 metres with a slingshot. 😉
Do you ever consider using tube bands?
I used tubes when i first started
