Here's a sling made out of paracord and leather that a lot of people have liked.  I call it a marshmallow thrower because a marshmallow fits perfectly into it.  They fly a long ways too since the leather doesn't grip the marshmallow, but lets it rest in the pouch freely.

My new favorite pasttime...trying to throw a marshmallow into the air as high as I can and catch it in my life (like people do with grapes).  I've been able to do it a few times during my presentation at The Great Passion Play in Eureka Springs, Arkansas.

This pink camo is a pretty popular sling with the girls at the Great Passion Play.

Guys like this color a lot.  It's called Black Widow.

I now have around 30 colors of paracord from which I make slings.

I made a pretty big woven paracord shepherd sling that will throw tennis balls.

I'm glad that it made it safely to you Smiley

This forum is a really great place to learn the art and the science of the shepherd's sling.

Hey David the shepherd! I just got the three slings I ordered and they are great.  Thanks for the prompt service.

It seems like most of the people on here make their own, but if you want a nice quality sling, this is a great place to buy one.  The craftsmanship is excellent and I don't know what kind of wax he dips the knots, etc in but they smell nice too!

Thanks again!

I'm getting pretty good and hitting people with marshmallows.  It surprises them since it makes quite a loud noise.  I make sure they know I'm aiming for them, and that they are not standing too close.    Smiley

I have now made 4,827 shepherd slings since I first started in 2008.  My slings are in all 50 states as well as 28 countries, 6 continents.  If only someone from Antartica would be willing to pay the postage to get one down there!  

This forum helped me get my start.  Smiley

I wish I could be more involved in the forum.  I started giving a presentation before The Great Passion Play in Eureka Springs, Arkansas in 2008 approximately 100 times a year in front of on average 150 people a night.  Slinging is one of my greatest passions in life.  It helps the story of David and Goliath really come alive and is a great way to relax (and get relief from anxiety).  

I have met a couple people from the forum at The Great Passion Play, and I hope to meet more during this coming year.  Go to www.greatpassionplay.org for performance dates and information!

This is my new friend at The Great Passion Play.  The whole is a perfect target!  My good slinging buddies Hack and Rob put it up.  A lady at church volunteered to paint it! 

Goliath might have been over 9 feet tall (depending on what type of cubit you used).  Kids love getting their picture taken with it!

Sorry I've been off of the forum so long.  Life happens, you know.  Been busy with The Great Passion Play and slinging!
