I have YouTube and Facebook but Facebook I've been trying to get rid of for ages. The problem is living abroad and only being able to connect with some people back in England through it. I've been considering getting Instagram but... ugh. It's another account to keep up with. Twitter I drift in and out of. Technically I have a Tumblr account but I only use it for resizing photos (for some reason they get resized when they're uploaded to the perfect v size for the forum).

I mainly use FB as an address book and to stay in contact with several slinging contacts, although I rarely check it.
My youtube channel is pretty "unvisited". I sometimes post slinging / crafts related things there.

    A very long time ago someone from slinging.org started up a page on Facebook.  For some reason it never took off.  I just sent a membership request to Acroballistics Slinger.

I’ve really only got 2 social media accounts
slinging.org and instagram.
Between these I find I’m probably on the screen too much anyway.
I like Instagram for my photos and videos and browsing, but I much prefer the community and comments on slinging.org

P.S.:
Did some exploring there and found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-YS8FEcbH4
If you watch frame by frame you can see the rock hit between the ears or the neck of the animal. So there you might discover some interesting stuff in there. gonna post this also on the hunting thread.

I think I technically still have a facebook account but I don't check it anymore. It doesn't help me, just stresses me and tempts me to fight on the internet instead of doing something useful or fun.

lol - yeah I hate the facebook software - but it's the best way to keep in contact with most slingers.

There are whatsapp slinging groups - but I am not giving my mobile phone number to a social media app. Oh hell no !
