Sling Ammo? (Read 4949 times)

Math Freak Junior Member Offline Mmm...Math Posts: 92 Gender:	Sling Ammo? Mar 19^th, 2006 at 11:47am What good ammo would be good for a 6in pouch and a 4in pouch? Most things that I try to sling are either too light, too small, or too big.

Reply #4 - Mar 19^th, 2006 at 7:58pm I definately advocate some baked flour balls (there is a post not to long ago about them) or some baked clay glandes. you can size them to whatever you want and have very consistent ammo all of the time!

Reply #7 - Mar 19^th, 2006 at 8:36pm I dont exactly know what that is.... but golf balls are a perfect weight and size for my sling. Those are my favorites. Also i like to use flat rocks and fling them low over a lake.... its very difficult but i can skip rocks with my sling SlingWolf

Reply #8 - Mar 19^th, 2006 at 8:46pm tennis tape is used to wrap tennis racquet handles to make them heavier and get better grip, iirc. Been many years since my rear ever saw a tennis court up close.

Reply #10 - Mar 19^th, 2006 at 10:46pm i don't recommend tennis balls for non-split pouch slings, as they are too light and tend to fall out. Where I live, rocks are the most readily available ammo. Ones bigger than a golfball and smaller than a tennis ball work best.

Kold Ex Member	Re: Sling Ammo? Reply #12 - Mar 20^th, 2006 at 10:23pm I totally love golf balls, just as they are, for practice ammo. As for real ammo I will always love the golf ball sized stones, but since I live right next to a river I guess I have better access to them. Kold a.k.a. Loki

Reply #13 - Mar 21^st, 2006 at 2:02pm A note on tennis balls, I use them when slinging out in public when alot of people are afoot. Regular tennis balls won't go anywhere, but If you use a 18 gauge needle to inject them with water, you have a relatively safe heavy projectile that is very consistant. It also gives the allusion of safety to those around you. _unsapien
