Hello From Pennsylvania
Jul 22^nd, 2018 at 10:19pm

Greetings Everyone,

I am Flint. I took up slinging several weeks ago because I broke my slingshot. Needless to say, I am absolutely hooked on slinging now, as well as constructing slings out of any natural or synthetic materials I get my hands on. I'm normally more of a lurker than an active forum member, but the community here seems pretty nice, so here I am.

I'll end my intro here, but if anyone has any questions for me, I'll be around.

Howdy from Texas!

“My final hour is at hand. We face an enemy more numerous and cunning than the world has yet seen. Remember your training, and do not fear the hordes of Judas. I, without sin, shall cast the first stone. That will be your sign to attack! But you shall not fight this unholy enemy with stones. No! RAZOR GLANDES! Aim for the eyes! May the Lord have mercy, for we shall show none!“ -Jesus the Noodler

Near Buffalo, so not that far. Maybe there's a place halfway?
