New Year's Challenge-"Dress-Shot"
Dec 18^th, 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!

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!

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!

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
