I have no experience with paracord weaving, but I might just take it up to be able to make one of these

Idk, the crack of the sling in the video is stupidly satisfying. IIRC if a sling has a crack on the release end, you’ll only hear it when your throw is good

Edit: 4:30 showcases it beautifully

Thanks for that! Looks like that would be fun as hell. Trouble is, my yard is probably just small enough to get me into trouble with a neighbor… flip side, temptingly big enough. lol. I have a pellet gun and bow that I throw around back here. Want to set something up for throwing knives or stars. Target practice is so satisfying.

Though I live in a dorm, you don’t have to go far outside Rexburg to do stuff like this. I can just go to the dunes and do some free slinging

I was going to make a dumb joke like “if you sprain your elbow, the doctor will put you in a sling” then I watched the video and I legit want to make one too

You’re thinking of a trebuchet. That’s where doctors put patients they don’t want to deal with anymore

I’ve been following a few slinging pages for a while now. Freaking cool, I agree. I’m right with ya mate.

A hoodie string, and a beat up pickleball

It. Works.

I’m so getting some tennis balls this week to throw at the football field

Here’s the vid I used
