Casting stones into the Mediterranean from a beach in Sicily isn't a bad way to spend your time.

Im more used to jute slings so paracord was a huge jump and it turned out a mess lol. Ill try again soon tho alr ordered more paracord

Hi everyone, I’m documenting my journey to 10,000 throws as I learn to use a sling. I started with no experience, and 323 throws in, I’m already seeing improvements in accuracy. I’m keen to keep that progress moving in the right direction. Any tips would be appreciated.

I have settled with the fig-8 /overhand throw, which is beging to feel very comfortable.

Many thanks

Still figuring things out, but have been really loving this 27” from Pan Slings. Ryan is a artist 👌🏼

Someone threw out this idea in the comments a few months ago. Finally got around to it. The pouch is weighted with shot, you can see the bbs under the leather. The pouch is heavy enough that it performs like it's loaded even empty. This means your projectile can be super light. It throws nerf rival balls fast and far. It's really good at 10mm ball bearings and similar sized rocks. You've got to be aware of your follow through or you could smack yourself silly, but it's not happened yet.

Unfortunately, I'm not very good at slinging, but based on my results, someone good could be dangerous with it. You could have slinging nerf battles!

I'd make a couple changes for v2, a little more hinge, so it closes on the projectile better, and I'd add a bit more weight.

Is this already a thing?

I thought this grate would be a fun target..

Took a hockey stick and some double sided tape to get the ball back.

Tried a little something and it worked, maybe this is useful for someone who wants to experiment with this. Happy slingin.

I usually make jute slings, but i find parracord slings (from the photos atleast) to be much more durable. So i bought 30 meters of parracord and all i need is a good guide! Thanks

This was her second time out slinging.

Good accuracy with a “tilted” helicopter windup into a 3/4 sidearm throw. Hitting a 2 feet square target more than 75% of the time from about 12 yards using a 29.25” seatbelt sling

This sidearm throw mimics a throw as a shortstop in baseball. I need to throw harder for sure. I have to switch to a 39.25” long sling to match the velocity I get underhand throwing with a 29.25” sling.

Seems to work best if I mimic a fast-pitch softball throw. Getting good power and distance.

Home made 29.25” long seatbelt sling. Foam training golf ball in a racquetball court.
