Sling Shots

[devils son in law]

It was a Sling Shot site that got me back into darts.  I threw darts many years ago and kind of lost interest for years.  A couple years back I started shooting sling shots (or catapults, or flips) and someone posted about darts on a forum I belonged to and it made me hit the basement and start throwing again. 

Does anyone here have an interest in such a thing?  Maybe I'll spark someone's interest like someone sparked mine! Here's some that I've made.

I used to use them a lot as a kid and still have 3 or 4 around the place that I play around with now and then. Just at targets. Nothing serious.

I've never used a sling shot (or shanghai they're called here too) that has a wrist brace. They're illegal here in Australia. Not sure why, but I'd love to try one out.

There is really not much benefit to a wrist brace, many people assume it provides more power, but that power is in the banding you use.  It does help stabilize a poorly designed handle.

Ah this brings back good memories of being a little tearaway when I was a kid! Haha, you'd never see me without my slingshot back then.
Your homemade ones look really cool!

I'm not sure I'd ever find a reason to justify one, (short on space and hunting would be frowned upon in my neck of the woods, next to a nature reserve) but the craftsmanship on those looks great +1 Guests cannot see images in the messages.
