Nice video comparison Hudson, and I agree with lead compared to steel. Most hobbyists use lead for hunting compared to steel because of its stopping power, whereas steel tends to provide better penetration and is easier to obtain. Keep the videos coming and also, I hope you and your family are doing okay because of the fires on your island, I hope the locals will recover from that event.
I carry slingshots in my go bags because they are a silent way to hunt and defend yourself if needed. I always wondered if lead would be more effective for survival hunting or self defense. It seems that the lead has less tendency to bounce off of the target, delivering more inertia of the shot into the impact. I think that your test answered most of the questions that I had. Thanks.

Hey Hudson...great vids... Question? What is the thickness of the bands you are using and what is the tapper? Also, what ratio are you shooting? Thanks much...
Hey sorry man I missed your comment somehow, I think I ended up using a 25-20mm, 0.7 band for this thing. 9.5mm steel for the ammo. Not sure the ratio. Thanks for the comment!
Hi Hudson! You make cool videos! 👍 Your skills are impressive! I saw your video how you made the slingshot! 💥 Which sling shot were you using in this video? How long have you been shooting slingshots?
I actually prefer clay for things like this as it gives you a better idea of what you slingshot is actually doing over just stabbing a clean or invisible hole in gel. Definitely better for airguns and other weak weapons, save for maybe arrows where you want to see slicing action more clearly. I also suggest you give slinging a go as well, check out Mitch Mersa, Irongoober, and Practical Paracord to see some of what those guys are doing. It's a bit different than a slingshot, but I enjoy doing both, as free ammo, practically free gear, and 300+ yard shots end up being a lot of fun, especially at rivers, beaches or into the woods a ways away. I have a video of myself doing a 300+ yard shot into a reservoir if that interest you.
I like your video. It's informative and entertaining. I have approximately 200 pounds of lead so I just make musket balls out of it and have a blast flinging them all over the place. 😎

Hudson, thanks for the test, it's very helpful. Also, I trust you are doing well after the fires.

Muito bom! Gostei bastante dos seus vídeos!
Interesting how the mass can make such a difference 😁
Great video
Keep it up ❤
What caliber of rubber band do you use and what measurements do you cut it to?

I was using the Evo made by Wayne at catty shack and have been shooting for a few years, thanks for the comment.

Awesome, I just checked out your vids, pretty cool. I might have to give it a go some day
@@hudsonhertz it takes a lil while to get the hang of it, but launching a rock really far into a rocky cliff is pretty awesome
Enjoyed the video.. Love to see you do something with eight millimeter and six millimeter...😎👍
Very nice shooting 👍
brass.. heavy but still hard

@@sparkygoldman510 awesome, thanks for the comment!
ขอทราบขนาดของยาง กว้าง ยาว หนา ขอบคุณครับ
Always used 9mm lead myself bud shoot flat and hits hard
Make more videos of bird slingshots
Honestly i prefer your clay balistic gel because once you cut it in half we (as a viewer) can se more clearly the difference
And it's lit tho
Good video bro one
Make some more hand line nattys!
Anyone no any tips how to get your lead ball more darker
Mad bro u should hunt birds with them
The steel balls are move smoother then the lead smoother goes deeper
❤❤❤❤
Good experiment my friend 👍✨
I just found out your channel and give you my subscribe & like 👍 😊
Cool
How old are you?

At ECST during the speed shoot challenge someone ricochet and it me in my neck.
