Incidentally, the motif comes from a fortress in Palma.

But, the real question is, how far can the man depicted on the bag sling while carrying another man? I tried that yesterday. I lifted a friend on my shoulders and used a sling to shoot a tennisball. I only got a distance of 30 meters

Hahaha! Excellent! Scientific inquiry at it's best!
@Jaegoor I was wondering how you came up with the motif on your bag. Did you do it yourself? It is very well made. I wouldn't even use such a beautiful bag for fear of scratching it.

There's officially something wrong with me.

I see the problem… you need more slings.

“My final hour is at hand. We face an enemy more numerous and cunning than the world has yet seen. Remember your training, and do not fear the hordes of Judas. I, without sin, shall cast the first stone. That will be your sign to attack! But you shall not fight this unholy enemy with stones. No! RAZOR GLANDES! Aim for the eyes! May the Lord have mercy, for we shall show none!“ -Jesus the Noodler

the hanging green play ball to the right of the shed is the target at 20 meters. There's a rice-filled tennis ball (ammo) behind the kid's bike. I'm making more of those right now.

The rest of them are in a box in the shed, in various coat pockets, desk drawers, suitcases, car seats, coat trees, and couch cushions, and behind my younger son's dresser.

My wife's gonna kill me if I pull them all out at the same time.

I want to braid and weave more, but I have kittens now and they just won't stand for that. Hmmm... maybe somethin nice in paracord.
