You *ROCK* dude! You gave the world exactly what it wanted when it comes to a demonstration of what is going on with a sling! This is by far the EXACT thing I wanted, times 10 thousand. The target is perfectly chosen, arranged, composed, thought out and is perfectly concieved, informing, illustrative, ... Im serious man. You nailed it. Literally.
Haha! Man, I'm happy that you approve! Thank you very much! And I totally agree that it's those tiny details that really are the most informative. I haven't seen another video with a split screen showing multiple techniques, so I thought it would be interesting to see. It is a very reactive target, so I thought it would be perfect for this demonstration :) Oh, also that ROCK pun is great, haha! I can appreciate that.
The one thing you can't really see here is what your hand is doing. I realize that it would be damn near impossible to film that with traditional camera equipment....
I happen to have upgraded my camera equipment since this was shot! I got another camera where I have more control of focus, and some really nice slow-motion! What kind of shot are you thinking of? Like a close-up of my hand throughout the wind-up and throw?
@@HaifischKuchen Thanks I was curious about which one you preferred. What would you recommend for a beginner? I am anxiously awaiting paracord to make my own first short sling so I'm just trying to research as much as I can :)
@@julianscaeva4334 Try out all the styles. At first you probably won't hit anything with any of them, but that's natural. Some of them however will probably feel more natural to you than others, and those are most likely the ones worth concentrating on at first. Everyone's body mechanics are different, so what works for me might not be ideal for you. I know many prefer the underhand throw, but I can't get any power to it, no matter how hard I try. For some, the figure 8 feels counterintuitive, but for me it's the most natural style. Have fun practicing, slinging is insanely fun.
The first technique I learned was the Byzantine. I sling the farthest with that one. The one I like better is the figure 8 because I find myself to be more accurate with it. I'm really impressed at how good you are with all of the styles. Nice work.
this is the best yoututbe video ive seen in a long time. Normally you have to sort through ten minutes of explanation about why, how , who, blah blah about nothing helpful, and then don't even get a real good demo of what it is youre looking at. This guy---straight to it, different angles, different speeds, comprehensive. Thank you sir, and i've subscribed! Whats the largest animal you think these could handle? Probably not large deer, but like send it into a flock of birds would be pretty effective way to use it? I'm talking about a survival situation by the way, not some random psycho hurling rocks at animals haha
Wow, your comment just made my whole day right there! I really appreciate it!! I'm happy that you enjoyed the video. And I guess I'm not much of a talker :) I'm working on getting an editing computer going so I can get some more video content going. So I'd like to say, stay tuned, haha! Yeah definitely launching into a flock of birds would improve your chances of bringing one down. Small mammals like a jackrabbit could be incapacitated by one stone easy enough. I've always wanted to hunt turkeys with a sling. For a deer you would have to be insanely cunning and accurate I would think. If you could actually hit it, the stone would cause some good trauma, but you probably would have to track it down to finish it off.
Ha! A New Zealander, that's awesome! Yes, I know what you mean, there are a lot of vids with a lot of fluff and nonsense filler. Really frustrating to fast forward through to find what you're looking for. When I made this video I thought it was too long and people would probably think it's boring by comparison. But so far it's been pretty well received! Man that sounds fun! I was thinking a boar would be difficult too, haha! With ground animals, you don't need as much precision when aiming. If the projectile should hit the ground in front of the target, it still carries a lot of deadly momentum. So even a ricochet could be effective. I live in the plains in the U.S. so I have to travel to find a nice forested area. But hell yeah! There's no reason not to carry a sling with you. They are so easy to carry, and anything can be ammo. I few weekends ago I was walking along the edge of a lake and found a pile of "D" batteries someone discarded. Those things can be really deadly, lol Also I like the way you think, haha, fishing with a sling could really be possible! I've experimented by putting a gopro underwater to see the trajectory of a rifled stone through the water. If slung properly, it actually cuts through the water. So I don't think it's out of the question to be able to take out a fish that is near the surface of the water, or in shallow water. Maybe someday I'll upload that video too, lol
@@Kurokubi Ive cracked myself in the head, non sling arm elbow, and a few other areas. Not as bad these days now that Ive been doing it for years. Still nowhere as consistent as I want to be.
Very well done! I really appreciate what you did here! But just as an add on it might be advantageous for newbies to mention "Coriolis Effect"! If you swing from the left (as in the video) your missile will have a tendency to arc to the right of where you think you are aiming! Great for when you want to "LEAD" a moving target! If you swing from the right, then it will arc left! Overhand will arc downward, so aim high! Underhand will arc upward, so aim low! Just a comment to help! Oh, and a backstop would keep you from having to hunt for new ammo after every practice! Keep 'em coming! This was an amazingly educational video!
Action speaks louder than words. Awesome demonstration! Various techniques, various angels, various speeds! Smooth action and great accuracy. Great skill! All round good video. Thumbs up! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for making such a great video! You edited it perfectly! Really appreciate your time and effort demonstrating the different slinging techniques.
Outstanding video demonstration! Excellent skills and the instructional value of seeing the various styles, performed by a single accurate sling thrower, with multiple angles and multiple speeds, is really outstanding, and helpful. Bravo!
Very nice video! As a left handed slinger it was nice to see another one. I was taught by a RH person and it took a solid day with their help to get the basics all figured out. My favorite technique is most similar to your figure 8, it starts like your figure 8 but ends more like a helicopter.
sweet! like your style, the slo-mo sections helped. I am also a lefty so your demo was perfect. nice video I am sure I will watch it many times. thank you
Excellent Video! Your visual demonstration of the skill and video craftsmanship is so refreshing compared to excessive chatter of other videos that did not display skill. Also appreciated the honesty in your editing, admitting that you missed often. Well done!
It's so interesting that there are so many techniques! It looks o fun! I'm going to make a sling and attempt to try each of the techniques! Thanks for inspiring!
You're the first I've seen doing the figure 8, which is the way I was taught. We did, however, use a bit longer string. To me it seems the most powerful with least amount of effort and time. Great video. Thanks for taking the time!
@@robs9574 You'll have to practice them for yourself, but as a quick reference, Helicopter, 8 or more revolutions and a significant amount of expended energy for one throw. In the event of a fly-away rock, it can go in any direction making it unsafe for anyone nearby. Figure 8, 2 revolutions achieve maximum velocity and arm movement is the same as throwing a pitch in baseball. Certainly easier to achieve accuracy than the Helicopter. Best shot at 3:50. Stray rocks go down, back or up in any variable of the 3. Byzantine, similar to Helicopter, but 2 revolutions. You need more room beside you and the stray rock danger is still a 360 degree affair. Overhand is certainly the fastest, but still not the velocity of the Figure 8. Stray rock danger is almost nil. Underhand is just, well, underhanded... (That's a JOKE son, a JOKE I say!) Awkward for me. Not the control that the Overhand has. At 9:00, compare the Greek to the Overhand. I just appears as though the Greek has just a little more oomph, but still not quite what can be attained with the figure 8. It's all personal reference as well. Longer string means greater velocity, but too long and your hitting the ground. (Or your shins!!!) It also makes the rock feel heavier. You'll have to experiment with different string lengths to find your sweet spot. This guy has been doing this a long time and is well practiced in each technique, though doesn't say which one he feels is the best. That's a call you have to make for yourself.
@@ElderlyIron thanks for the info! Got my sling but nowhere to use it. Looking forward to getting land soon so I can let my sling, Kirlis, and guns out to play.
Absolutely brilliant, now my son aged 14 wants to try and I am going to start myself, since I am interested in ancient weapons! I have been using boomerangs as weapons too and have made a few to my own design!
Most excellent, I did not know there were so many different methods, my grand father introduced me to this type of sling shot and only said spinning it around your head did nothing for accuracy, just swing it once and hit the target. So I knew of the helicopter and was advised off it, and I reinvented the Greek.
prolly the best ive seen with a sheperds sling and being totally familiar with it and the ways that it can be utilized!! Glad to finally see someone thats not married to one technique of slinging some pure furry down range. You are slinging the hell outta them rocks and on target as well!! Well done man!
Best instructional video I've seen on this topic yet--and not a word spoken. Great job--even though the helicopter probably went on a little too long. *I just wish you were Righty because it's a bit harder for me to imagine it all the other way!
comments at 420 . i was out side for a some fresh air and heard a pack of coyotes kill something big a field away , then i had a deep thought about how to fend off something with little or nothing ... this vid was the best i could have ever asked for, and the end showing them all at once! that should set the bar for no bs instructional vids.
You are very good! When I was a kid, my older brother made me a sling completely out of leather. I spent about 4-5 years throwing it everyday. It was a lot of fun. Then we moved down to Los Angeles and there was no place to throw it. Thanks for showing all the different styles of throwing the sling. I threw the helicopter style, figure eight (we called it overhand) and something of a side arm throw. I lost the one my brother made somehow, so I recently decided to make another one. It has a leather pouch and leather straps like the one my brother made for me. I can't wait to throw it for the first time. Just have to find a place!! Anyway, great video. Very nice job!
Hey thanks! That must have been a nice leather sling to last so many years. Thanks for sharing your story! My first slinging experience was when I was a kid and my sister came home with a braided sling she made in a bible studies class. That's great that you are getting back into the hobby! I wish you luck in finding a suitable place to sling. Even a park would work if you slung nonlethal ammo :)
Wow thats impressive....good job...AWESOME skill level ...i shoot bow instinctively ....this is way more primitive but along the same lines ...we seem to have a built-in targeting system that just works ....great video ....well done
Sir, I am impressed. I love you style and slow motion. I also use a leather split pouch and leather string. My tie offs are more simple. I practice everyday but just need to watch the wind up to the throw. Your video is perfect. Thanks from Dahab South Sinai Red Sea Egypt
Great video! I came here to see if the technique I use had a name, and it does! It seems I use the overhand technique! I was having trouble with accuracy, but after using this technique, it doubled
Very good. I've watched some from Greece and Middle East, but not as accurate as you and as practiced in the several ways it can be effective. Make more videos. Great job.
This is a literally perfect instructional video. Absolutely outstanding job.

I didn't know agent Smith had rock sling skills programmed in.
LOL.
Did him wrong 😂😂
the blue pill or the red pill you have a choice
Welp they were programmed in every combat situation so...
He's been programmed to be proficient with all ranged weaponry
As a lefty, I thank you for making this video. So much easier to visualize it and practice mentally when I see it done by a left handed person!
You're very welcome fellow south-paw :)

The Bible talks about left-handed slingers. Short but interesting.
Just as an FYI, you can always mirror the image, which is what I'm gonna do with this video, as a right hander 😉

Dyers88 With fish, you would have to consider light refraction and aim accordingly. It's definitely doable, though!
That is something I want to see.
@Dyers88, my thoughts exactly. I am fed up with useless introduction, and the "now, without further ado" bullshit.
Never thought i could learn slinging from Neo, But here we are!
This guys literally performed the technic, with power too 💪🏼
Helicopter: 0:18
Figure 8: 2:27
Byzantine: 4:22
Overhand: 6:17
Underhand: 6:50
Greek: 7:37
Nice, I didn't think to do that.
The first is Balearic Style not helicopter ;)

Only if its a non-rifled throw. If it is a rifled throw, then it will fly straight and true, regardless of whether it was thrown overhand or side-arm.
Is it true also when bullet are not spinning?
I agree. I wish he would do some more videos about slinging. His slinging is very fluid.
Best video about slinging technique i've seen so far on youtube. Right to the core of it. Insores me to get better with my technique.
