So glad I found this board, tons of great info.

For some reason, a baerlic slinging competition video appeared in my Youtube feed.  I've been making slingshots and the like for a few years, and was amazed by the power and accuracy of some of these guys.

Made up a sling, and was immediately hooked.  Love the simplicity of this weapon.  Looks to be a long road to "get good" with one of these things, but I'm going to give it a try.

Hi, OMW;
    It is a long road to getting good with a sling but it's a fun one too.  Welcome.
