Doesn't really matter what we think. If you like it then that's all that matters. You're going to buy more anyway!

It doesn't look like something that would fair on you.
Looks steel of some nature,often zink in Chinese metal parts, it's brittle so beware of that possibility.
Hand size, if you know what fits your hand well and enjoy to shoot that'd help you know by it's dimensions.

Yeah the titanium ones are always a pretty penny. They’re cool. I have a friend that loves titanium slings but, I’d say for your first one don’t waste the money. Just something simple will work. And stay away from anything with sights on it. All they do is get in the way and tear bands. Try the Taurus trio from Pocketpredator.com. Three nice slingshots for a really good price. If Bill still has that deal going.

yes true but people still consider sling shots a kids toy
especially the shape
When you see this shape: Y
people automtically think about little kids that needs to grow up and bart simpson and all those kind of things

to counter this you need to have a stylish expensive look
and telling them that it can kill things also helps to make the slingshot more mature

Or, just don’t give a damn what anyone thinks. We all support your sport choice. Those that don’t get it are just missing out on the fun.

It's amazing what the Chinese can do with the so-called wire cutting technique.

I like the stainless steel version with the eagle symbol, the history of which is rooted in several ancient civilizations, and has been, or is used by numerous countries as part of their national identity. Where did you buy that one?

The titanium version has a more practical design from a shooting point of view in my opinion.

Both have definite merits, you'll enjoy using them.
Im not a consumer, prefer to build, as for the second, I don't like that the web of my hand is inside the gap, but the first seems excellent to use as a core encapsulated in a resin ergo grip to enhance eagle :)
