Ooh, that's a hard shot. I really look forward to seeing it! Only problem is when when you get it, I'll have to spend all day (or more) to try and get a further shot

LOL! That's the best way to compensate for my lack of actual slinging skills Grin

I would consider myself an average slinger at best. It's easy to make a person look better than they are on video... and you can't see how close I am to the target.

In the case of this video, I was actually hoping I would miss the egg a few more times. I was trying to get shots from several different camera angles, but I obliterated the egg on the second shot Shocked

Yep. Just break an egg using a sling. You can do challenging, entertaining, whatever you want.

Looking forward to see what you come up with!

Not sure how to properly judge. So I was thinking of putting all the participants video links in my comments and let them judge with all the votes public.I will make videos to promote but won't participate. What yall think?

If you give it a day or two, some of the other guys can add their feedback here.
