Title: Testing out a sling from Acroballistics (Sarosh)
Post by joe_meadmaker on Jan 5^th, 2023 at 9:33pm

Here's a video testing out a sling I got from Sarosh. It's this one: https://slinging.org/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1661972992.

I'm also trying out a combination of the Backup 10 Feet Challenge and the 100-Round. Turns out to only be a partial 100-Round.

When this was recorded, I had done a couple rounds of tennis balls with this sling. But this was the first time throwing ice with it. It's a great fit for ice balls! :D

crazy to still see that effect/slight curvature in trajectory on ice balls (or am I not seeing it right?)

Nice slinging, brother!

I need to try making ice balls someday!

For some, yes. I was getting just a little curve to the right. Mostly around the 80 - 100 feet range. Once I started getting out to the longer ranges with a higher trajectory, things were nice and straight overall.

In general the curve I was getting wasn't enough to be a problem at all. I don't think it cause any misses. All the bad throws were 100% on me.
