To be fair, it isn't any more difficult than Greek and, as was pointed out by RS, you can hold the position so you're ready to fire for as long as you want just by resting your arm on your shoulder. It's fairly powerful and accurate as a throw. It's the one useful thing we got from RS, don't ruin it! Cheesy


Lol. It's all we have left of the good times right?  Grin

Hahaha ya that guy..... I usually just skipped over his comments but I might have to go back and check out this Turkey throw. So it’s just a different starting position?
Mersa and Sarosh you guys are killin it!
So how about a different challenge with October approaching!
Let’s practice for a couple of weeks and then have a pumpkin shooting challenge!!!!! By the way, if you have never shot a pumpkin the exit wounds are massive hahahahaha
Or for another more casual challenge get a stone or ball through a basketball hoop from the three point line

Were it not for my schedule I would be out there slinging at pumpkins....

I take it back, were it not for my schedule and the nonstop rain I would be...

Nope that's not true either. Were it not for my schedule, the rain and these BUGGERS.

...

I tried going for my jog yesterday. Its been raining for the past week. I knew they would be bad. But I literally coated myself from head to toe with DEET. No good... They were everywhere. It was madness. I ran like I've never run before, made it about 5 mins out and turned back for home running for my life.

Today I will be jogging in place in my living room thoroughly defeated. You guys go...have fun. Houston is a total loss.  Grin

Rain and all my time is taken up. Any free time I do have is being used to recover from my non-free time and dragging myself outside is a mountain I can't overcome right now. This is only going to last another two and a half weeks. I'm clinging to that right now. I need a holiday.

I’ve never seen mosquitos like that! Christ!!!!
Well, it’ll be weeks before the pumpkins show up in store so I’m not rushing anyone!
New thread for this might be a great idea.
Quite excited now!!!!

The person that sent me that pic said it's from the Texas City d**e, a popular fishing spot near my area. Not sure if that's true or not but considering how bad the mosquitos are there at normal times I can imagine what it must be like at dusk on the d**e right now. 


EDIT: Wow... Profanity blocker got me. Well it's bike with a d. Anyways... Roll Eyes

I’m going to practice from 10-15 metres later and see how that feels.
I remember Luis’ Pons Livermore’s video where he was shooting at 25 metres and even he only got a few hits.

So I do like the pumpkin challenge. I also think we need a pumpkin pie challenge. Which is essentially whoever can eat the most pie while slinging, holding a sling, or even just being in the general vicinity of a sling.

If you can't justify the calories we can just say it's a benefit for the children. Whos children and how it benefits them is irrelevant. It's for the kids.

This and the obesity challenge are in my top ten. All this clean living is for the birds. Give me a beer and a pizza and I'll take that challenge any day. Again, to be clear, I don't want to, but for the kids I will.
