    This is THE best video aside from the other similar no talking one. I have been slingshotting for about a year now and I followed your video and instantly starting hitting my target !

      That's a strong endorsement. I haven't shot one since I was a kid and never properly learned how to aim. Can't wait to see how much fun it'll be with a bit of accuracy!

      He's referring to "Slingshotsniper TR", the Turkish guy living in Germany. In my many years in slingshooting, including as Assistant Chief to Chief AJ, head of the National Slingshot Association, 2nd iteration, I've NEVER seen such clear and comprehensive tutorials as his. The Turk is tops for anyone serious about the art of slingshooting. And as mentioned, all done without speaking.

    First time ever touching a slingshot here. I bought one with 1500 clay shot and an extra strap in Walmart since it was $20 total. I was able to get relatively consistent shots in the area of my 1ft wide target from about 60-80ft by feeling it out, but your tips have me consistently hitting many times in a row. Even when I do miss, its by inches rather than feet now. Thanks for the help! I figure another skill under my belt is always good even if I initially bought this for fun.

  • @turtlepoi

    This moving the anchor point this and keeping he sight picture is perfect !!!! Very best slingshot aiming advice I've ever heard. I know it's good because I know it will work even B4 I try it. I subscribed as a thanks.

  • @saint3210
    @saint3210 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Watched many videos about shooting slingshot. This is far the best video. Especially about changing anchor points when shooting different size slingshots. Also, I totally agree about when you say some days you just can't hit targets. Just stop and try again next day. Thank you.

    I got a slingshot /catapult for Christmas with a hundred clay 9MM balls the other day I was in the back yard {garden} and was talking to the neighbor he had a slingshot with him and we talked about it and it got my interest peaked I got out one of my folding 18” X 24” folding firearm targets and was able to hit it from about 20’ away. Watched your video and am thinking I can hit much smaller targets from farther away soon.
    I have ordered more clay ball ammo to practice.
    Enjoyed the video

    The way you line up the elbow-arms is the same way you’d shoot a bow.
    Release also similar. Letting go and not forcing
    Moving cheek place si not the way you’d do in a bow, though. You woul not change the T of your arms and bow
