And as it was really just balearic-slinger asking for info. We can encapsulate it in the simply question. Any news on this program yet ???

reviewing the different web sites that have talked about this show, I have turned up no new indications of an airing date... the only clue I have to go on it that the Biblical Productions site says that it was filmed for Ancient Discoveries III, and the history chanel is currently airing Ancient Discoveries II. That would seem to imply that we will have to wait for next season, or year unfortunately.

When in doubt, shoot for the head (worked for David anyway...)

He's there, for a fraction of a second

http://www.history.com/content/ancientdiscoveries/featured-videos then choose the 'Ancient hobbyist videos' tab and scroll down to 'Slingshot'.

There are a couple of brief shots of balearic_slinger doing his thing in the desert.

Irritatingly, they dont tell you how to use the sling once you've made it Angry

And it looks like they are making a nice NW European sling. Based on the surviving relics I am thinking that the sling that was used was braided or woven instead of the simple sling showed in the clip.
