lol I guess we'll find out in a few weeks

Really looking forward to slinging with louis Thumbs Up

I can say that with a balearic sling and style - I'd never hit a melon.
With my slings and style. Dunno how many shots but I'd definitely hit it - eventually

I'm currently printing the world's most hi-tech sling pouch from a urethane based industrial rubber (%95 done).
It's going to be an interesting contrast

He is still a dang good slinger though.

I've been following Mr. Livermore for years now. He is the best. Slinging different shaped rocks, even if they are round is extremely difficult. The fact that he threw about 6 rocks before nailing the target dead on each is proof of his greatness. I'm not quite that good but I'm close. Anyone that laughs or mocks his abilities is an inexperienced poopy talker. That's all.

You rock Mr. Livermore, literally Wink

Posts: 17 Central Texas Gender:	Re: 25m slinging challenge Reply #10 - Feb 15^th, 2015 at 3:36pm Agreed, he's got some power behind those shots, and he's putting them in probably a 1 foot group at distance. Most people have trouble shooting a handgun that accurately. -Jenrick

That's a cool fact! I might have to look into how accurate people are with other weapons in comparison

Jaegoor, I suppose we are out of the loop. We have all watched the History channel film on David and Goliath. In it he is called the champ and the best. I guess we are all just going by that.
So who is number 1 on the list??????
