Ya I hope they do! I hope they also either train or stunt double the slinger to make the slinging technique look believable. As with most of y’all I’m sure, when you first show people the sling, they chuckle until you actually sling a rock and they see how fast and far you can throw a rock.

Little late to the party but that is awesome Vet! Congrats! What a thrill that would be to see your own handmade slings in a movie.

Great news, providing some equipment for a film, Congratulations!

Have you offered some sling training? Maybe it is woth putting in effort before, so that the scene becomes really cool  Smiley

I am at two sling  courses in Austria, one in August, one in September. I would be willing to train an actor if the want to come by, this is close to Vienna.

If they want a special training rhey could come over any time. If they want I would even come over to UK.

Didn't know you're so territorial  Grin   Grin  Grin and what about David?
Alex I wanted to show them a cool slinging style, but if they want yours at least theres a proper slinging technique in a film  Wink

I was in the newspapers already eight times with slinging this year, so peerhaps some media detox would be appropriate. On the other hand - a movie hmmm  Cool

It's a damn shame there won't be any Australian movie with the sling...

Me, Mersa and maybe some of the other Australians could be actors!

What were you in the newspaper for?  Was someone asking you about slinging?

I’m offering training here in South Carolina. I’m sure Mark Wahlberg hung out with some snipers before he played the Gunnery Sergeant role in his movie Shooter. Distinguished pistol shooter and sling enthusiast here at your service!

Depending on how well the movie does, this is another chance to bring slinging out of the realm of fantasy for the mainstream. They have to pull off the technique though.

Any new info on this? I saw they moved the release to 2021 due to C-19.
