Title: Many more Slinging videos to come! Post by Camo-sling on Apr 23rd, 2012 at 8:43am
For the past year I have been filming a few of my slinging sessions but I have been too lazy to actually edit them and publish them on my youtube channel. However, magical spells have been cast upon me and I have the motivation.
Here's a brief outline on the videos I'll be uploading in the next week or so. I'm aiming for one per day. 1. Video of slinging in 2008 at a beach (Yes, I lost this video on my laptop!). 2. Footage of a few awesome slinging spots I have found. 3. Slinging in a pine tree plantation. 4. A group of strangers react to slinging. 5. Target Practice - 15 to 20 meters (This video has a really upbeat song, my apologies). 6. Target Practice - 25 to 30 meters. 7. Target Practice - 10 meters (Big Hit) 8. Too Many Near Misses 9. Just Die Plastic Box 10. Small clip of a Sidearm (No promises, I can't find the tenth video) My channel link is - http://www.youtube.com/smabber I will post a link on this thread each time I upload a new video. |

First Video - Beach Slinging in 2008.
This was the first time I used these paracord slings traded with Ilovepancakes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3DKT4-d5-4 The sling was so big compared to me I almost fell over preforming a figure eight. |

Fantastic Camo! I love it when people post their new vids on here. Makes things a lot easier to find and discuss. :D

Thanks Morphy, its a pleasure to finally publish these videos. The target practice videos to be uploaded shortly will be the best.
Here's the link to the second video - A Cool slinging spot - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaQVhTRsz_4 The open bin was set up perfectly by nature. The bin is now home to dozens of rocks. |

Good slinging [smiley=thumbsup.gif] and that's exactly the stranger reaction you should get :-) |

New video posted -
Target Practice - 15 to 20 metres. Apologies for the outlandish music, I felt I needed to spice the video up a little. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p9JVKX_Ylo |

This explains the fact that people do not know anything for sling. Good videos! |

Good slinging Camo. I wish I could tell for sure where the stones were hitting... but even the little I could see the grouping seemed good. We need to get you to the Balearic competition this year. :)

Nick, my young mate. Just slow down a tiny bit. You launch into your throw the instant your pouch is loaded. Take only a few seconds to settle yourself and concentrate on the target. That computer between your ears is the most amazing thing in the universe but even it has to do a bit of number crunching to put you right on target.

Morphy, My grouping was okay, but it still needs a lot of work to consider entering a competition, let alone a Balearic competition! |

Thanks for the feedback Aussie. I had a similar comment in one of my older videos, however, it seems I still need to improve my rate of fire. I will begin to focus on this in future slinging sessions. |
Title: Re: Many more Slinging videos to come! Post by Aussie on May 2nd, 2012 at 7:18am
Sorry to belabour the point but I suggest that you select all the stones you intend to shoot in a batch, say 10, and set them on the ground in front of you (I notice the Balearics do this in their comps) so you won't have the distraction of alternating between looking for stones and shooting them. Then just take that little steadier between shots.

I like the idea of a stone pouch or tennis ball pouch on the side of the belt, similar to a hip quiver. I remember Tint was using a pouch in his target practice videos. |
