- The #Simpleshot Sparrow Review a Zachary Fowler Design
In this video I review the Sparrow the slingshot Zachary Fowler designed and named after his daughter. This slingshot is a pleasure to shoot and is an excellent design that shoots great out of the package.

It seems I have made an error in the intro. Zach did not bring the slingshot on alone with him. What I meant to say was simpleshot provided him with the stuff for the show. My apologies!
Great review it looks pretty nice and your shooting is Tip Top blessings Brother
I love that video super review just awesome
Hey thanks Tim. I just shot another great review of the Wasp uniphoxx enzo recently. That frame is turning into one of my favorites.
Yeah I saw it also a great video
Yeah
Thanks for the review! I am totally going to pick one of these up! For what’s it worth, you do a great job with reviews. I agree with you about the bands they send out. They are always really stout! I do like simple shot black but I prefer .5 or .6. Again, great review brother! 👊
Thanks for the kind words brother. I think you will love this frame. I had my doubts at first but it shoots fantastic and it has a comfortable design that locks in your hand. Yup their lighter bands are great. But I prefer to make my own bands. I also don't like their pouches. They are fine after the break in but it takes a long time and it seems they tie all their bands for ttf frames.
I just got this a week ago. Recently I've been making my own frames but I wanted to give this a try and booooooy oh boy am I glad I did. I think it is the best slingshot to come out of simpleshot. Really impressed and surprised. Great frame, great price, comfortable and enjoyable. Well done Zach and thank you Nathan!
It really is nice. A lot of people are trashing it because it is just a hunk of plastic. They can say what they want the sparrow shoots like a champ.
@@ATOMark you're kidding me? Most other slingshots are "hunks of plastic" LMAO boy some people are really..............ugh. Anyway, I think it's the most comfortable, stable, and perfectly weighted frame that Simpleshot has ever produced. I fricken love it. As somebody who owns over 100 frames, I think my opinion has a little bit of weight. I guess you can't please everyone.
I agree. It is a great frame. They are missing out.
Excellent review and excellent shooting keep up the good work 👍
Nice review thanks
Great reviews thanks for the great video it's a nice chucky frame always nice to see one in action 😁👍
Glad you enjoyed it brother.
Merci pour tes vidéos ... de France 🇫🇷
Merci d'avoir regardé. restez en sécurité mon ami.
I just finished practicing with my Sparrow 👍
Great shooting! Just ordered mine Friday. Can't for it to get here
Its s real fun shooter. You are going to love it.
Mate, you're costing me a fortune here! Great review and it's always good to see something new at the budget end of the market. Thanks man, and take it easy :)
Thanks brother. To be honest I had my doubts about this one but for $20 it was worth it. I was surpised how comfortable it was to hold. So I put the bands on and took my first 2 shots. 2 frame hits. I couldnt hit a thing I was even missing the catchbox. I really didn't like the feel of the bands and swapped them up. Instantly it shot like a dream. With a little more range time with that slingshot I will shoot as well as any of my other top shooters I'm sure.
@@ATOMark Good stuff :) Keep it lit my friend!
The Fowler "Sparrow" is a comfortable frame. The point at the end of the handle I blended smooth to the frame
Awesome review and very good shooting.... 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks my friend
It is a nice frame. It is comfortable, and does not cost very much at all. I quite like mine.
Me too i wish there was a clipped version available though. Its hard to beat the value of this frame though.
Well done. Good shooting
Thanks man.
The man can shoot 👌nice review as always mark
i love mine.
Great review. Great shooting too.
Thanks man.
My Sparrow should be here any day now. Next I’ll e ordering ammo and bands. I’d like to try 5/16” and lighter bands as I develop the basic skills.
.5 bands and 5/16 is my go too. Love it
I reckon boss man should be given these different slingshots for free he's always done amazing reviews and after seeing his reviews I always want to purchase what ever catty he's just reviewed he always points out relevant thing and he's always truthful about the products he's a big reason I started getting more serious about slingshots as a hobby ....stay blessed from the u.k
90% of these frames I have purchased myself. I have received a few for free. It was nice for the makers to appreciate the work that goes into some of these reviews. For example 30minute drive, 30min hike to location, 3-4hours shooting 30min hike, 30 minute drive, 20 min upload to phone, 2-3 hours editing , 1.5 hours upload to you tube, description, end screen, cards, 30 min thumbnail. Done. Lots of work goes into these. Its kinda nice to get a frame from time to time that I don't have to pay for.

Great video! I have a green one in the post! 📪😁 can't wait to shoot it!😎
It's a great frame. I hope they make a vlipped version someday.
What about a Torgue slingshot ..do you like ?
The original torque I am not a big fan of. I prefer clipped frames and the clips on the torque are just bad. When I shoot it I shoot it wrap and tuck. I would probably like it better if it was 90mm frame with better clips.
Great video!
Thanks man.
Great video 👍
3/8 ammo at walmart nearly 8 bucks now, guess I'll be getting ammo from Amazon from now on 😞
I have found decent prices on ebay. Just have to poke around a little.
I don't buy slingshots, I make them but this one is seriously tempting! May have to be my first production frame.
If you are going to try a production frame the price is right on this one. It is really comfortable to hold and if you like frames in that 80mm to 90mm fork range you will love it
@@ATOMark Well I ended up ordering it like 10 minutes after I commented this so we shall see!
@@masons2463 how was it? 🎯
What ammo you shooting in this video
great review and shots my brother👏😊👍 looks like a natty made of plastic
Yup it is plastic. The same material as the scout lt I believe. Really cheap $20
Hi ATO,
Any change in future the Sparrow come with band clips
I found out that the Wasp Uniphoxx clips is just right size for the Sparrow tip.
If i drill the Sparrow to fit those clips, will it loose it strength ??
No idea if it is in the works at simpleshot but I wish they would considder it. You do run a risk if modifying the forks. It may be good of it could break and hit you in the eye. That is a decision you will have make.
@@ATOMark thank you for your advises & thought🙏
I love mine have to do a little repair my puppy got ahold of it
Lol I love dogs. They are the best.
@@ATOMark I used kt tape to cover up teeth marks and put bands back on it now I'm back in business
Good review brother, I just got a black Sparrow in trade from one of the forum guys, but haven't shot it yet... Holds great though
Super comfortable. I did find it a little small on the fork tips for me so I carved one out of ash a while back. Shoots great but I think I need to reduce the handle a little more.
Check it out. th-cam.com/video/n6wOC3IzLvc/w-d-xo.html
Awesome review
Thanks buddy
There he goes!!
Ya I couldn't help it!
I love your reviews bro stay blessed from the uk.....also a quick question I been racking my brains trying to figure out what is different between thumb brace grip and pinch grip....I shoot ott predominantly and I'm most accurate with my hand shaped like the letter C and i find when I use the C type grip n hold the frame as close to edge of fork tips as possible then I can't miss a shot.....so ive thought so thumb brace must be thumb goes up onto frame fork that must be the brace bit but it's still unstable unless you even out the grip other side moving index finger up onto frame fork but isn't that just pinch grip.??? Please add your opinion if you understand my question it's something that really drives me nuts especially when I see people saying this is pinch grip but this is thumb brace grip but to me looks like the same thing???
Thumb brace you will wrap your index over the frame and the thumb will go on the bottom fork face thats on the shooters side only. Pinch grip you are holding the top part of the handle in the webbing of your hand between your thumb and index finger. Your finger and thumb will wrap around to the target side of the frame. Hope this helps.
What is ur aim point reference sir?
This frame is a little narrow for me so I use the fork tip but aim a little low.
You prefer these or Scout LT?
I like the scout lt better only because of the clips. I find the sparrow more comfortable and their performance is about the same.
Which is better scout lt or sparrow
That really depends on your anchor point and personal preference. I prefer clipped frames to wrap and tuck. Both fork widths are in the range I shoot well. So I would lean towards the scout lt because of the clips but both are great frames.
@@ATOMark thank you i wish i have that sparrow in here in the the Philippines .
Cool I got you get one
Can't go wrong for $20
Love the videos when you barely hear the highway ;P
Me too! its so much better when I am able to get away to film.
@@ATOMark Yea adds a bit a relaxation to the feel for us too. Just curious since i see you have the wasp spinners, you get any of the slingshots from Simon during that order? All I'm using now is the Uniphoxx...I have like 8 haha and the Target master in G10. Addicted I think.
@@crusty3260 yup I got a uniphoxx and love it. I have to say their flippers are incredible. I know they are just flippers but the design of them i think will stop cutting into the rope so much. The metal ones ricochet too much and I chew through the rubber ones. Hopefully the wasp ones will last longer.
@@ATOMark Agreed! I've been using his spinners for over a year now, haven't looked back. Such a great product. They do get a little concave after a year's worth of shooting but they don't break. Thanks for the talk, always a pleasure to visit with you ;)
@@crusty3260 stop by any time my friend. I will be doing a video of some wasp slingshots soon. But I think I want a few more.
He did not bring that on alone with him
Ya you are right. I had a brain fart when doing the that section of the video. He had brought another frame and I don't believe he used it. I noticed the error and pinned a correction to the top of the comments. When it was pointed out to me.
Thanks so much you are one of my favorite slingshot shooters on TH-cam
Crude! A primitive design realised in dayglo plastic!
It is simple, crude, cheap and it shoots like a boss. I like it.
Shoots great though, and you cannot see it while shooting. They also come in other colors.
He didn't bring it on the show. Lmao making stuff up hahahahah he maybe made it on the show not sure
No I don't think he did. He did carve the frame out him self but didn't bring it on the show. I meant to say that simple shot provided him with stuff for the show. I got my facts all screwed up. I didn't even notice. Thanks for calling me on that. I will pin a correction at the top of the comments. Or in the description.
@@ATOMark hey dumb ass im trying to help. Mayne research more. He has a 10 item video and its not in it. Maybe he snuck it up his ass huh? He didnt even make it on the show.
@@AmericaNeedsWeed yup and I was seriously thanking you for it. I did make an error. Thanked you for pointing it out and I pined my correction at the top. Again thank you.
