A couple of TargetMasters from the Pocket Predator line

Here's a couple I've been playing with for a bit.
They are real nice shooters that deserve the name "TargetMaster"...
The G10 one is a full inch thick and possesses the weight and heft to give it proper stability when shooting targets.
The wood one is made from Oak multiplex and is strong and light enough for care free all day carry and useage.

These will be in the Vendor's section soon, so keep your eyes open!

Top one is a nice light colored G10 polished to perfection super strong with nice heft,
the bottom one is Oak multiplex, strong and light for all day carry and use.

I got a little extra time today, so I was able to get the proof video shot for the TargetMaster style Pocket Predators.
Was able to get 12 shots off with 11 hits in 1 minute on a coke can hanging 33' away. Wind slowed me a bit

At the end... just showing off, I shot one extra round at the chain/wire connection holding the can up, shooting off the can. Yeah, pretty sweet.


Was also able to get a couple more videos done of a couple other designs, but Youtube isn't working right for me right now. Hopefully later on I can get my BB shooter's video up!

Anyway here's the TargetMaster's video:

Great slingshot and great shooting Bill! -- Tex
do you make any frames that you shoot upright?
Well it seems there's another slingshot out there under current production (just started) called the "targetmaster"... So I'm going to change the name of this style to either "Sniper" or honor the greatest Sniper of all time by calling it the "Hathcock"....
What do you all think?
Do you have a better name for this particular style... heavy, large, stable with the ability to shoot like an expert marksman?

Kudos Bill! Your stuff is top shelf -- the products and the shooting.

Great shooting Bill!

You're a Top Shot for sure.
Hmmmmm I only counted 10 hits and two misses the last shot was after time
I missed with the 3rd shot, when the wind gusted up on me... everything else was a hit, the 11th shot looks questionable at first but if you enlarge the video you can see the little bit of can that's still hanging there move, as it only clipped the ragged bottom edge of it... but that still counts as a hit though.
It's very clear on the original video, but once it goes through the compression software to reduce it's size enough to get onto youtube... it loses a lot of clarity due to pixelation... but you can still see it well enough if you just enlarge it.

The last shot... I knew I was over time, there's a clock on the top left after all... so I aimed at the chain wire connection to cut the remaining bit of can down, which I did... just trying to show off a bit that's all!
Yes will agree to that when I looked on you tube and enlarged it you could see the hit.Coke cans are to thin to take multiple hits they shred after a few shots bean can cans are much thicker and last a lot longer many can take take 50 shots plus.

The coke cans do okay with 3/8 and smaller ammo. But I decided to use the 1/2" ammo as it's easier for me to grasp and center when shooting fast... It tears the can up real fast, as in this case the third hit tore the can in half. But I figured the ability to center the ammo in the pouch very quickly would more than make up for the lack of an easy target for most of the shots taken.
