It's starting to get closer and closer to negative temperatures here. What are the effects of the cold on the rubber? I can't shoot indoors, so if I can't shoot outdoors, I'll have to give it a break till it gets warmer

I live in england also but I still shoot in the cold just put the slingshot in your jacket pocket holding the tubes to warm them up I did this earlier in the week and they were fine.
