    First of all, I'm still learning about anything slingshot related stuff. Secondly, I can't really put it into words so I put this image below to address what I'm talking about. I've been using this kind of pouch which have bisa circular bowl-like holes that I'm pretty sure it functions to keep...

    Opinions on harder leather for pouches. When i first started shooting slingshots i used a DIY frame, some fitness bands and cut an old leather belt for a pouch. I eventually switched to a more modern, standard setup over time. I have been using various microfibre pouches for a few years and...
  3. Slingshot Bands and Tubes
    Has anyone tried shooting without a pouch? The idea just came to me from reading the lightest pouch material thread. 1 long band. Mark the centre point and then tie each end to a fork. Probably a straight cut otherwise a very long oddly shaped template would be needed.

    Does anyone know where to find sheets of microfiber thick enough to make diy microfiber pouches? I have been using leather and it works ok but with the leather I have the the band holes stretch and slightly tear. I would love to find some microfiber material especially on Amazon suitable for...

    I struggled with this for a while. I bought one of those little leather pouches with the magnetic flap, but that wasn't great for clay ammo, and the magnet pulled out a bunch of ammo that then needed to be crammed back in. I ultimately settled on making my own, but a family member gave me a gift...

    Hey Folks, Happy Friday! What pouch size do you choose when you shoot 3/8'' steel? Or what are the guidelines regarding pouch size? Thanks Alan

    Dear Fellow Shooters, How do you hold your pouch? I have a feeling my release is the major issue I'm having now. The other big issue is the position of my elbow. What is the secret to a nice and clean release? Thank you very much and have a wonderful day Alan
  8. Speed Pouch

    I made these specifically for shooting 1/4 inch steel in the SSF 300 club. They are 1mm thick x 40mm x 15mm. I modeled them after some from Torstens video. Some i made previously where to narrow for the forces being applied.

    I have been testing out some of Nathan's fat tubes, I say fat tubes because I can't remember the dimensions and they are much bigger than my 1745s and 2040s Mass manufacturer tube set: Nathan's tube next to the smaller 1745s. For reference: First cut a small slit into the tube approx...

    I'm a fairly new shooter, so i made my own slingshot. By any chance, is there any way to cushion the forks? the way i shoot my homemade slingshot is very painful on my finger. also, what materials are good to make an efficient pouch?
  11. General Slingshot Discussion
    Hey everyone, I recently became interested in making my own leather slingshot pouches. Up until now I've been using Rayshot's Supersure pouches, and these have been absolutely exceptional. However, I'm in the UK and ordering the pouches from America means a very long wait and expensive shipping...

    Here is some work (a couple hundred not shown), from a week + ago. As you can see the light color side is showing so I could label the pouches. The opposing sides are green, and what I call "ruby". I wanted to create better composition for a good photo but they had to get in the mail. So...

    Yo "Hypersonic" WBG *These are now available PM me for details (9-10-12) Not long ago I got a chance to shoot a .17 HMR rifle. This was truly a blast, and the experience got me thinking again about smaller ammo and high speed slingshots. A while ago, I was asked to make a smaller slingshot...
