Have you thrown stones or clay balls with it?
Stones infrequently. This has only happened if I was digging in the yard and found a stone that looked nice for slinging.
Never used clay. It's definitely on my want-to-do list. Maybe one of these days I'll get some and can do a clay vs. pykrete video.

Nice shot, Joe. My favorite sling has a cupped pouch also... I use all types of sling but my go to is a a modified jute PJ with an elongated pouch. I generally shoot oval shaped white river stones which are abundant in South Jersey. Or golf balls.
Question: are you good with a yoyo? It seems like you would be.

Not really. Although I had that same thought. After I copied the recording to my computer and took a look at it, my first thought was it looked similar to yo-yo tricks. I've tried tried working with a yo-yo at different points in my life. I was never any good. I always had trouble getting the thing to sleep.
