I know I'm preaching to the choir, here, but I have been having so much fun. I've been shooting every chance I get and learning so much about the process and the materials.
I thought I had my anchor point situation sorted out, then decided to expand my horizon by drawing back more. Whoa!
Bands are my next major study. I thought I hated this band and loved that band. Learned that on a different sling, I love the band I once hated.
I'm up to three slings in the stable. I have a GZK Hammer that I got by mistake. Still learning that one. I have a SimpleShot Scout LT that I love. Newest is a GZK Improved G-Shot that is maybe my favorite. I'd say it's close, but more research needs to be done!! I'm tempted to get an Ocularis, but I'd also like one from Pocket Predator. Thinking that pretty soon, I'll be attempting a self built.
I have a pretty decent place to shoot at work. It's nearby an unauthorized household dump, so something of a target rich environment. I have a huge chunk of concrete for a backstop. Yes, I know about RTS. I have a piece of carpet I lop over it, then lean an upside down plastic chair against it to hold my targets. My favorites are some small bits of tile. Between the chair and the piece of carpet, I can collect most of my ammo for another time. When I'm through, I toss the stuff to the side randomly, kind of how I found it. This means that nobody is the wiser.
I still haven't told mama. I "come out of the closet" Christmas morning. Santa brought me a box of slingshot stuff! I don't think she'll be horribly surprised. She has to have seen all the slingshot vids on my YouTube feed.
Fun stuff and so much more to come! Merry Christmas, everyone!
