Came across 2 slings to throw shot on the Primitive Ways site, one using a gourd the other with a plastic bottle. No idea how well they work, but I definitely plan to try the one made from a plastic soda bottle. Wide range of cool posts on ancient tech.

'shotgun' slings we call those - there was a brief popularity burst ten years or so ago on here.
Useful for throwing handfuls of small things (hence the name)
There's not a lot of accuracy, and you lose energy transfer - but fun things to play with

Timpa's shotgun slings are good ones to copy

You are a great guy Kick but also slightly scary at times. - Morphy
