Personally I do not really like tennis balls. They are just so light and akward to throw if you get what I mean. Like after throwing stones or clay balls and then throwing a tennis ball is just plain strange. Wink

It's a problem for sure. I think some of us can adjust faster than others switching between ammo types. I practice with tennis balls all the time. On the occasion when I can throw stones, it takes me may be 10 or 20 throws with stones to get the feel. Shorter slings are easier to make adjustments, I find. I'd still practice with tennis balls though. It ought to be better than no practice, otherwise, I won't be slinging much at all!
