Thanks for the compliments fellers! I shot it with flat bands on it today and man is it fast! I had 5 one inch wide bands per side of Theraband green, shooting marbles at a can stuck in a tree. Man it tore that can to bits! Looked like a grenade went off inside it. I only have the weak Therabands so I just stacked 'em up! The slingshot is 5 1/2" tall by 3 1/2" wide, with only 1 1/2" between forks. Shot it around a hundred times and never smacked a fork! Oh! P.S. it's just oak, but I can't wait to spend even more money on some ash!

Nice one Smitty!. Try folding that Theraband over a few times rather then making multiple one inch strips-like say cut 2 pieces 3 inches by 1 1/4" by 6"s and fold it over a few times. You should get real good speed with that. The little guys do shoot well and they hide fast!:D Flatband:)

Thanks Flatband for the advice. Sometimes it seems there is too much to learn about rubber and I want to just put anything on a shooter and just shoot it! Then other times I'm Glad there are so many choices!
