I bought the simpleshot torque laser night with the flat and and clips. Is this a good slingshot?
Exactly! For some shooters a 90 twist and an elevated elbow can fix most issues. Especially if shot anchored to the face. Also start with light draw that helps to get used to the geometry. Once dialed in, it is a powerhouse.I love the frame.
BUT, I've heard that it can be a challenge for beginning shooters. The gap is on the narrow side.
If you are getting fork hits, you may want to set it aside for a while and shooting something with more fork gap. Work on your release so the ammo consistently goes through the middle of the fork gap. You may also try some PFS release technique of turning the pouch and tweaking it ever so slightly toward the handle. That adds a "speed bump" effect that will get your ammo over the forks reliably.
I hopefully got all the bugs out with my current slingshot as far as narrow forks go ????????. I swapped from glass balls to clay ones because I kept hitting my hand. Haven't done that in about a week.I love the frame.

I heard same thing, I also couldn't get the flats to stay on for OTT without clips. I prefer the wrap n tuck over clipping sometimes.I love the frame.
