New Year's Challenge-"Dress-Shot"
Dec 18th, 2025 at 9:56am
 
I invite all slingers' friends to participate in the New Year's Challenge-"Dress-Shot"-2025. Any kind of clothing is a target. Jacket, T-shirt, pants, hats, boots, etc.)). Anything that can be used as a target. Any distance, we make a series of at least 5 throws. Upload the video to YouTube or another convenient platform and post it in this topic. It should be fun. Good luck to all!

Nice!  We haven't had a challenge posted for quite a while (other than the regular egg and pumpkin challenges).  This is a great idea!

I'm in! Cheesy

Great, Joe!! I'm sure you'll come up with something unusual and fun. I remember your video with the multi-charge sling. It was unforgettable!!

Any projectiles, any distance and any target of your choice, the main thing is that it would be fun and safe.

I got mine in: https://youtu.be/Mw-JdfGKk_Q.  This was tons of fun!


@Serg - I know you can't get to YouTube to see it.  I'm going to upload a copy to another spot and send you a link.

Hey joe what platform or website did you upload the video to and then send to serg?
So I can do the same to make sure he can see my entry when it's completed.

I saw Joe's video first and decided I needed to end my long hiatus and get back to slinging. Managed to get it filmed and uploaded today and it was fun despite the filming conditions. I hope I can get back to somewhat regular practice in the new year. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas or whichever holiday you happen to celebrate!

Here is mine. I hit a baseball cap with clay glandes. I put a metal diana behind the cap so I got a nice diana hit when I missed the cap just by a bit.

Thanks for the video, Joe!! Great shooting!! Such powerful blows and the material of the jacket withstood everything!!! The manufacturers of this down bulletproof vest should be proud of their clothes. Two consecutive shots at the heart area were just fire!!  Shocked
FloatingFlint,!!Thanks for the idea of putting something inside the clothes. It can be interesting to come up with and show on video. Wink

Great entries Kick and FloatingFlint!  I love the ideas!  That's one of the great things with this challenge.  It allows for a lot of personalization.

Thanks man!  I was happy with that too.  I wish I would have hit the third shot.  I tried putting some more power into it and that threw me off just a bit.

Here is my entry. It was boiling hot I was going to film an intro but the phone kept shutting off due to the heat.
I had to restart a lot because the camera stopped recording.
Resolution is also not the best I hope you find it entertaining enough to finish the video.
Target is a camo t shirt
