Hi from the UK (Read 330 times)

Matugena Novicius Offline Slinging Rocks! Posts: 1 UK Gender:	Hi from the UK Dec 13^th, 2020 at 4:14pm I’m New to Slinging. I have an interest in Ancient and Dark ages history. I really like the sling. So I made a couple, enjoyed it. So I bought one made by Tod Cutler. My accuracy is awful, but I live near a great place to practice, so hopefully I’ll get better. The Name Matugena is female Romano British of Celtic origin. Once again Hi

And some of us don't have very good even after a couple years. But seeing yourself improve is definitely part of the fun. Keep at it! Welcome from Pennsylvania, USA!

Welcome from Pennsylvania, USA!

And some of us are too modest, a trait which I thankfully don't have. If you ever want to learn the true art of slinging you are in luck because I am the sole proprietor of the only true way to sling. Cheesy

All joking aside welcome to slinging and slinging.org. This is a great forum with at times very lively debate. I hope you stick around.

Howdy from South Texas!

Accuracy is never a problem if you only decide what you wanted to hit after you are done with the throw Grin

“My final hour is at hand. We face an enemy more numerous and cunning than the world has yet seen. Remember your training, and do not fear the hordes of Judas. I, without sin, shall cast the first stone. That will be your sign to attack! But you shall not fight this unholy enemy with stones. No! RAZOR GLANDES! Aim for the eyes! May the Lord have mercy, for we shall show none!“ -Jesus the Noodler

well come the summer, I'm always open for people to come over and have a bash at a balearic target.

Always good fun and things generally deterioate into sock ball fights

I'm situated in the exact geographic centre of england (there are three local fields that claim to be it - I reckon we're near the centre point of the three lol). So unless your way up north or way down south - usually a reasonable trip to get here.

And welcome to the forum
