There's a pun in there somewhere, I just know it!
Considering that we learn best by experience, perhaps one could make a sling, and compare the time it takes to release a stone at high velocity, to the speed with which one draws, aims and releases an arrow.
Depending upon one's proficiency level, it can be an eye opener!
There is no denying the power, accuracy, and hunting efficacy of a bow and arrow, but then....perhaps it is too easy to do the same of the sling.
Afterall, one of history's most famous Israelite's seemed to fare pretty well against a lion, a bear and a rather large, warlike human.
