Like, why do we have "haters". There's always people out there misrepresenting the sling and making completely false assertions which I would say is out of ignorance for the most part. However, making calculations to somehow prove the sling is an inaccurate weapon is pretty odd.
Yes, yes it is. And even more so because this was being done by avid slingers themselves!
I really believe the motivation at least for a few of them was because they never achieved any degree of accuracy and instead of accepting they needed to make a big change they simply took the easy way out and said the sling was only meant as a volley weapon against large masses of troops.
This wasnt even that long ago either SerKraus. Look at the accuracy videos we have available to us now. There is no doubt it can be accurate.
