Just had to join this forum. Found it after some searching on the web. Can't believe that there are others out there doing the things I love and loving it too. 
I made my first sling at about 10 or 12 years old and have been using them off and on since. I'm 48 today and not as limber as then, but can still hurl a mean stone.
WhooDoggies. Life just got better knowing that there are other folks slinging too.    Oddly enough my father in law is the only other person I know who can, has, and does use a sling (he's 75). He used to carry a plastic bucket of good stones around in his pickup camper for his sling, (good stones are difficult to find here).
when I figure out the machanics of how to use this forum I'll post some pix of my current slings, some new some use.
For now just wanted to say hello to everyone.


If your from up north you CHUCK a rock.
If your from down south you CHUNK a rock.
But me, I just sling em.

Before I found Chris' website I was the "lonely slinger" too. It's really great to see experiences of other guys here.

Your father's in law vitality is proof of positive effect of slinging for health. So, lets sling endless

Yeah but David's getting pretty darn good from what I can tell.
