EASYANT Handmade Leather Pouch Shepherd Sling Old-Fashioned Slingshot

Blast from the past. Loved learning how to I use this sling. Cool additional skill to possess 👍

My youth group LOVES these!!! We practice by picking a target and launching marshmallows all over the place (stones would be far to dangerous)! To me its great way to give them David's perspective and a hands on way to learn just how difficult killing Goliath would have been without God's anointed help! Those slingshots are no easy thing to master!

The first one of these I bought came apart on my first cast. The finger loop that comes on this sling is a simple, poorly-tied slipknot. The first time I cast a stone the whole sling went with it into the woods, and I've not been able to find it.So, I got a second one. Luckily, I knew to watch out for the finger loop. When the second one came apart, I caught it. Then I made a better finger loop and it's now a decent sling. If you get one of these, re-tie the finger loop before you do anything else. I suggest a classic bowline knot sized for the wielder's finger.

Very practical

I purchased this as a visual demonstration object for a Sunday School class on David and Goliath. But, it turned out my teenage grandson enjoyed learning how to use it for fun. I watched a YouTube video and this was perfect.

Its is very well made with attention to detail (has a slip knot so that your finger will always fit). Works for different size of stones (I live by a stony beach and I could try different sizes). Requires practice to be accurate.

This sling is fun to use. It is challenging and entertaining.

One side was about 10 inches longer than the other which made it impossible to use. I trimmed the longer string down to the right size and now it works as a decent elbow length short sling. Also not much articulation in the pocket so the ammo you can use is a little more limited.
