This was kind of the idea behind the last challenge I posted with slinging something up in the air, and getting another throw off before the first one hit the ground. I'd be interested in hearing other ideas along this line.

No, that's not how it works. I definitely don't shoot Greek crap. And yes it is true. Proper reloading is crucial. But you will see that with Greek you start over and over again with your movement. I've tried this many times. It's not comfortable. I shoot my style. This is an ongoing movement. So let someone else do it in Greek. This style is so good. I use two spins and I'm still very quick with it. And I can hit with it too.

Looks like half a basketball court.
Is this is the fastest sling reload speed video on the internet???
Who’s up for the challenge, new thread.

There was once a shooter here who used this method and was very quick with it. Unfortunately I don't know his name anymore. But I would have loved to train with him once. I mainly use it for an extended warm up. This method is also very useful when hunting rabbits. If they hit a 200g stone, there will be a lot of bone splinters. That was the case with my first. But you don't have to hit a rabbit to kill it. Shoot them in the ground just before that. It'll get a shock and just fall over. Sometimes they still run zig zag. Then they have to shoot very quickly in a row.

In archery there is the clout discipline. The distance is over 100m. it works with a sling too. A target circle on the ground can be hit. But only stones that are in a circle are counted. So the ground should be soft. Here you can also shoot quickly.

During my training in fast shooting, I once thought that faster shooting is possible without turning. But this is not the case. The explanation is very simple. You need time to pick up a new stone or ball. Without turning, the sling stops moving before you have a new stone in your hand. Maybe it can be trained. But it's not comfortable. Personally, this speed is enough for me. If you can do it faster you will experience my amazement. 😁 Fast shooting is not easier with a Balearic sling. That is a fallacy. You also have to open the sling when reloading. A flat letter is easier. You can use it much better from both sides

As already mentioned. There was once a shooter. He was shooting on a tennis court with a very large bum bag full of tennis balls. I can't find him anymore

I remember that video. That might take a while to dig up. I'm not sure if it was a video file that was posted to this forum, or a YouTube link... That would be a good find if anyone feels like searching.

If you keep this up J at this rate im considering making a thread called J's experiments with links to all these threads.
I think at the rate you are experimenting its the only reasonable way to keep all the info together.
