Throwing with a 40 cm sling in tight quarters at short distances. Projectiles are 120g balloons filled with sand, or 'rusty ovals' in this case. Accuracy is much easier than throwing a longer sling even at this short distance. Bush or other objects that don't allow a full power throw with a longer sling results in a weak throw. The short sling is not hindered by it and can utilize its full power. It packs quite a punch. I think it is the best self defense sling because of these characteristics.
Of course, in an open field without any hindrances, you immediately feel how easier it is to get power and distance from a longer sling. But for distances sub 10-20 meters and in a place with many hindrances around you? You immediately feel how much easier it is to get power and accuracy with a short sling. Give it a try.
We should call them ''forest slings'' because of their effectiveness in limiting spaces.
