Thank you for the input and support. Much appreciated. Mr. Parker has been a wonderful addition to the E2E Team. Thanks for watching. Be safe -Adam

Whats the fork gap in your slingshot

@Equip2Endure 12 лет назад

Yes, Mr. Parker is full of knowledge and we appreciate him sharing it with the E2E viewers. Thanks for watching -Adam

@TheVengo111 12 лет назад

I agree, great video btw! What I gotta say though is, that the guy has a point. I say this, because I tried. And I really recommed trying both band styles. I've put an 11 mill lead ball cleanly through a jack rabbit, didnt even twich. This isnt really about either tube or flat, its about the best solution for different occasions. In my opionion: Tubes for long hunting trips, with a need of high endurance and heavy ammo, Flatbands more for high efficiency and penetration power. Cheers guys

Always but always I’ve been a fan of the catapult, (slingshot to you) or gadder to me, I can remember the first living thing I shot with one. I think it was more a surprise to me that I hit it. I was only a kid 10-ish and with an uneven stone I hit a blackbird, this was in the 60s I felt so bad, I picked it up in my hands and carried it across the field telling it I was going to make it better, it died in my hands. I cried and didn’t pick my gadder up for weeks. I got better with it and moved onto rats and tip gulls as my quarry I had so much fun blasting them. (When I connected of course, now I’m dropping to bits and not very nibble but I still have a catapult or two I’ve made and I’ve made my grandson one too

@Luca-xv3oy 3 года назад

I remember at my grandpas house he had these little mini cannonballs made out of lead that he actually shot out of a mini cannon back before the city took about 60 acres of land from them and they worked super good for slingshotting I killed rabbits and squirrels and I even killed a big groundhog that my grandma had been trying to get rid of for weeks it was awesome

@Equip2Endure 11 лет назад

Thanks Baz. I am glad you enjoyed the video. I hope you have the opportunity to check out more of our E2E videos. I appreciate the support. Take care -Adam

@TheFirearmEnthusiast 11 лет назад

Never shoot a pencil or pen from a slingshot. It will just stab you in the hand lol. Something I learned as a kid lol

@inderneilboseroychowdhury 4 года назад

Most Practical advice for hunting with effective catapult equipped with this particular type of tube rubber band for hunting.. The view on Deer Hunting is very true.. So far on the Internet the most valuable advice indeed! Best wishes from Hamburg, Germany..

@seanweir7311 11 лет назад

Your the man. I would of never thought about using a sling shot for a snare. Awesome thanks.

@nutthrower 12 лет назад

Mr. Parker, you da man - I love slingshots and have shot myself for years and know just how deadly they can be IN the RIGHT HANDS, it takes time and pratice, but yes it can be done - when one steps outside the box (comfort zone) you will always get hit with slack, but then thats what it takes to ENDURE - best wishes

@NW_Ranger Год назад

The producer of the video misspoke, a sabot is a jacket or patch of sorts that wraps around a conical bullet. A sabot is used to protect a conical bullet from the actual bore of a firearm or to fill displacement in a bore (acting to take up space). For example: sabots are sometimes used in inline muzzleloading rifles to capture a bullet while in the bore before being fired.

@Equip2Endure 12 лет назад

You're welcome. Enjoy the new slingshot! Be safe -Adam

@thundercracker900 5 лет назад

The best steel balls are from the car wheel bearings!! Open up the wheel bearing and there are lots of steel balls in there perfect for slingshots !!!!

@raymondtorres5106 12 лет назад

a fantastic video about sling shots thanks to Madison Parkers information

@brujero13 12 лет назад

"Once you kill something whether a rabbit, bird or squirrel with a slingshot; you're hooked." This is very true, I killed my first animal when I was 6 and 1/2 to 7 years old as a kid with a classic resortera and some gravel rocks. After I killed that critter I never stopped hunting with my slingshots. There is nothing more rewarding than harvesting game with a slingshot, great video. Nico

@webb1t1212 11 лет назад

A really good and cheap ammo I found was pastry weights they are little ceramic balls and are about £1 for 100 ($2?) compared to £5 for 100 steel ball bearings

@ikejackson6990 10 лет назад

Ball bearings from vehicles are good too.

@chewyskywalker6166 5 лет назад

Wat i use

@Equip2Endure 12 лет назад

We have sold them at shows. You can also take a class from Madison and learn to make your own and shoot it. We are working on making them available on the E2E site - a work in progress.

@Equip2Endure 11 лет назад

Rocks could be used in a pinch, bu most of the time they lack the weight or uniform shape to be used the way Madison uses a sling shot.

@VEGASOSO53 11 лет назад

very eye opening video to the uses of a good slingshot

@angelo8349 11 лет назад

We used to make our slingshots from guava trees when I was a kid. You know you can do a simple modification to your slingshot to shoot arrows? Just a key ring, rubber bands and an arrow.

@kirkboswell2575 8 лет назад

my brother is big on sling shot hunting. He has shot birds, static and flying, targets, and turtles......performance of the sling shot based on the strength of the bands.......he was able to send a 45 caliber lead ball a full 1/2 mile distance. So, deer COULD be wounded with his set-up. Head shots are definitely to be preferred, but based upon actual set-up, wounding is possible. He always says, that with practice, sling shots are as accurate and as effective as a rifle........His assessment, not mine......I haven't practised that much......but I CAN say, without hesitation that sling shots are viable SHTF weaponry.

@AlphaChimpEnergy 12 лет назад

I'm excited to see you guys taking game with the sling-shots. Very cool stuff!

@50kArchipelagos 4 года назад

That was very good. Lots of interesting way to think into it also. Thanks much. I'm just gonna get started when my slingshot and ammo arrive. 60 years old and I've never even had one. Time I have to think about eating city pigeons or such, and defence, if virus and supply lines get extremely bad. Wish I'd have bought that 5/8 now. Will get some. Thx, Madison.

@rubenmejias7302 3 года назад

Awesome stuff👍👍👍 it's giving u about 1/3 rd to 1/4 the energy of a 45 ACP with the heavier lead and Steel Shot. Which is pretty powerful

@kamotetopz6776 Год назад

The Slingshot is pretty badass.

@Gk2003m 4 года назад

Try this: .68 lead ball, with two perpendicular splits. The splits should be slightly more than halfway through. If the ball were a globe, one split would be the equator bisecting the Pacific Ocean, while the other split would be the Prime Meridian just past the poles. Shoot that into your pine board and see what happens.

@jordanrussell123 12 лет назад

I agree with every thing you have said I have bin shooting flat bands for about 8 years and they just don't last I don't deep draw I have a 33 inch draw and they only last about 70 shots but I have taken a lot of game with a 50 cal lead ball I live in England so we don't have the game that you have in the US

@goodtimes616 11 лет назад

you can get way more power with flatbands ie a very managable 310 fps with 285 grains full butterfly but it's true, they dont last long, maybe 70-100 shots or so. However, if you plan to go hunting, you should be able to get what you need with one bandset no? i mean if you cant, you should spend more time practicing first. I plan to get tubes for my target shooter though. The slinshot mentioned above would clear through dense 3/4" plywood at 15 ft away and still end up going through my wall.

@leecoomber3877 4 года назад

I agree 1 with the slingshot is more satisfying than 10 with a gun.👍👌

@jimsteele9975 11 лет назад

As a child I used homemade staples from cut pieces of balling wire for hunting birds. I have killed many a quail with them and a few squirrels, rabbits and a lot of crows. Just cut a 1 in. piece of baling wire and bend it into a vee. It flies true, is cheap and will cut right through a small animal or bird!

@JUDETOSIOU 3 года назад

Will try it..kinda doubtful and curious here..

@brujero13 10 лет назад

What a joke people arguing with a man who is 60 and used slingshots before thera-bands even existed lol Who cares how special thera bands are? Slingshots pre -existed therapy bands. Tubes can last you two years use FOR HUNTING! Not sitting down on the pc at a big forum or shooting cans in your backyard . Or telling a man with 50 plus years experience with slingshots that he's wrong lol My pop who is 63 will use a tube resortera for 2 years and kill his share of small game in that time. But therapy bands are better lol OK.. Keep up the good work guys..

@hawaiisidecar 10 лет назад

I get at the least 6 months from my tubes with a lot of use in Sun.

@harvestblades 12 лет назад

Madison I appreciate the instruction on using a slingshot. It was your article in Backwoodsman that got me into hunting slingshots in the first place. I also really enjoy the content from Madison and Bobby. In regards to the versatility of the slingshot can you and if so could you show using it for arrows and a spear. Also I still want a review on the parang you are carrying.

@davidrogers182 4 года назад

Great video! Excellent presentation as well! Thank you.

@dog22boy 12 лет назад

I like Juan Morales, he's telling a Seal Instructor who has killed a deer with a slingshot to watch the German who doesn't hunt

@TheBazFella 11 лет назад

Very interesting and informative video, and great shooting mate. I slingshot hunt small game myself, so I can tell how good you are and understand what youre talking about. Thank you, enjoyed that. Best regards, Baz.

@gerrynance7410 12 лет назад

I like the versatile slingshot. Expedient silent ammo could be a S&W 40 cal. Try a few Carbide Cutting bits from the machine shop. I would think 3/4 oz steel bullet sinkers might work to as the aerodynamics stabilizes flight path so they hit point first applying maximum psi. Also, 3/4" to 1" Grade 8 Hex Nuts have a Rockwell Hardness of C26 to C34. BTW - 1 X board is 3/4" finished thickness. Army Lethality standard is penetration of 3/4" plywood. Happy hunting.

@rapier01 12 лет назад

Cattys sure are great fun for hunting or target shooting. Mr. Parker is well practiced and knows what he's doing but I must say he should be wearing eye protection. His catty is a biggen. Most modern cattys are far more compact and just as powerful. There are many places to buy em, not taking anything away from Mr. Parker but I really love MasterBillHays, Nathan Masters (flippinout), in UK, Gamekeeper John (OLDMANSBALLBAG) and many others. I make to order myself. Great vid Thanks Mr. Parker

@Jimmynable 11 лет назад

Good advice also Madison eluded to it that u can't substitute accuracy for power and there's also your shooting style to take into account. Triple theraband gold bands would have no doubt gone straight thru that wood but that's too heavy a draw for most ppl to shoot accurately, I think doubles would have more power than the slingshot in the vid as well. If u got a chrony u cud test the speeds of each?

@playdrums 12 лет назад

i think something like a cube the size of a dice made out of lead would be pretty bad ass, i dont know how you could make it though....great video mr parker!!!

@mrouterrim 9 лет назад

I found light ammo messes up bands faster than heavy.

@TheHarleyhillbilly 4 года назад

I have heard from other videos it stay away from the tube bands seems your pretty accurate with tube bands.

@eqlzr2 8 лет назад

Thanks for your interesting vid. I was particularly interested in the lead ball ammo since I cast my own for use in muzzleloader shooting. I'm also once again reminded of how much chain-link fencing clashes with nature, IMHO of course. ;-)

@readthebiblelessons 2 года назад

You're very informative I appreciate it

@kplummer0810 11 лет назад

I love flatbands, but he is using nuke tubes cause they are very strong and long lasting, also, this dude is pretty strong!! Hes really drawing those tubes back. Most people cant draw like that

@brujero13 12 лет назад

Good man, rocks are my favorite ammo very lethal stopping power.. Gotta love nature!

@racerx82big 11 лет назад

maxi hunters... thats what i shoot out of my muzzleloader.. i never thought to shoot anything but round balls.. hes deadly with that slingshot, keep the good vids coming cause im gonna subscribe..lol

@KeefsCattys 10 лет назад

Shooting at a deer is a hell of a decision .Certainly I would never take that shot unless I HAD to. Even in experienced hands the risk of injuring and causing suffering to an animal unnecessarily is high.I'm sure that you agree. I would hate some child or gung ho adult to go out and try to emulate you Madison without the level of expertise required. Interesting video and some great insight into the impact of the big rounds from the catapult. All the best guys and enjoy watching these videos a lot

@lucascohan9524 9 лет назад

same i would not shoot at any big game unless i was getting attacked or in a survival situation an if i was in a survival situation and was trying to shoot a big game animal im going to try to hit it in the eye or timple or some part of the animals head that is soft

@MrDirtysteve75 5 лет назад

I wouldn't want to get busted shooting a deer with a slingshot. The fines for poaching and possible jail time just not worth it.

@scotthoffmaster4600 4 года назад

old video i know and im late to the party, but its Saboh not sabot the t is silent even though thats how its spelled. And technically thats not one.. A sabot is a break away carrier for a projectile like used in rifled sabot rounds for shotguns. Still appreciate the work put into this. great info on the rest.

@Equip2Endure 11 лет назад

Thanks for the input

@wavilen1 11 лет назад

понравилось Ваше видео, вспомнил из детства совет, чтобы пуля летела острием вперед надо сделать оперение из бумаги на заднем конце пули, в форме трубочки длинной 1.5 см.

@fartx211 12 лет назад

The steel is probably not much different to the kind in the plate target. Its just light because its thin, but the can shape lets it absorb a lot of energy

@syko172 11 лет назад

ive got a daisy slingshot with a wrist brace that i use for pigeon control in my warehouse, all that ive got were all headshots. i use the white marbles but am going to swap to steel and see if that does a better job. thanks for the tips and keep slingin.

@YakMotley 8 лет назад

Awesome video!

@DogGuy19 8 лет назад

Ok, just to be clear in case I didn't quite catch it ~ you're saying acquire the target BEFORE draw? I jest... Seriously though very good video, lots of good info. I was going to ask, "Is he a real UDT/Seal instructor?" But he would not be wearing that shirt if he hadn't earned it. More evidence that just about anything in a Seal's hands can become very deadly. Impressive display. I look forward to the day I can be confident enough to take a head shot at a big buck. Thank you Mr. Parker, I'll be watching more of your stuff!!

@alfshooter 11 лет назад

@kelhawk1 5 лет назад

I use a .40 cal round ball mold.

@MrSulkow1 12 лет назад

Very nice keep it up, i grew up shooting sling shots so this is cool!

@kirkboswell2575 8 лет назад

Need to add. Tapered bands are more effective for smaller ammo, and straight bands better for larger ammo. Check out Bill Hays's videos. Second, latex is sensitive to the environment. If you want longer life from your bands or tubes, use Armor All. it protects your bands from UV and etc. Testing shows 3 times the life with Armor All compared to without......... just saying.......

@garychandler4296 5 лет назад

Don't you just love it when you pick up that sling off the shelf, and the therabands are stuck to the dang shelf!!!?

@patrickgermond2750 8 лет назад

Wow this was a great video. Thank you for making it.

@Knight8365 12 лет назад

If you make your band sets yourself, can you do a tutorial video on how you attach the bands to the frame and the pouch?

@outdoorclown 12 лет назад

Great video thanks Madison. Love your sling shot videos

@rapier01 12 лет назад

Would have to be lead I think. Steel can be faster but lead imparts more energy on impact which is what you want for clean kill shots i.e. hunting. I use tyer weights I find at or around tyer joints but I dont bother melting them down, just cut 'em to size with hammer and chisel and shoot 'em as is. They seem to fly just as well as round shit does, are cheeper (free) and far less hastle than moulded balls. Your only going to shoot 'em off and loose 'em anyway. Well thats just what I do

@Maddawwg45 12 лет назад

i got a walmart cheapy model marksman foldable i use pecans from the pecan tree ( native pecans is what i have and probably work best because there smaller and weigh more then papershells do ) in our backyard as a less lethal option for stray animals and critters didnt wanna kill em only make them leave and let me tell ya the pecans sting the bleep outta most things but they shatter and do not penetrate gotta be fairly close though 10 yards at most id say

@abramporras7877 10 лет назад

you can by slingshot ammo at walmart it comes like bbs but it has bearings in it 7 buckaroos

@winstonsmith935 2 года назад

I use a heavy duty sling shot with a 5/8 steel ball to scare deer out of my Veg patch. Trust me a shot on the rump, and that deer jumps about three feet and takes off. That’s all I want out of my sling shot, to chase deer out of the Veg patch. Average distance about 45 to sixty feet. We are overrun with Deer, the coyotes will run like hell with a shot on the hind quarter.

@kadinfisherboy 11 лет назад

sorry to correct, but a. 45.4 cal. is not an actual size. Calibers are fractions of an inch, so therefore it would be a .454 cal bullet or just a 454 just like a 243.

@hardtekn0 9 лет назад

The ONLY advantage of tubes is the longevity really.. You get WAY more power (no opinion --> measured facts) with flat bands EVEN with same size or bigger ammo. Thats simple physics & facts. But I admit for a survival situation I'd take tubes other than that and even for normal hunting bands every single time of course. Got one slingshot with tubes and one with few bands always with me in my backpack but most of the time I use double or tripple bands and get up to 200 good shots with them. Also I can change the band in less than a minute with my slingshot. ;) (don't mean to be rude and sorry for my english btw)

@crashstitches79 8 лет назад

+Berserk Flatbands fucking break in 5 mins, so they won't do you any good in the field. $3 yellow Daisy tubes have been tested within 11 fps of TBG with the same ammo. Lose a touch of speed, gain a ton of durability, save hours of time.
