- With all the newcomers getting into Slingshots, I wanted to get to the basics and show some of the more popular styles and their respective names or nicknames. This video covers a few of the different style slingshots being used today. Flatband
Very nice video, Flatband! I will post the link in my blog. 5 stars!
Very nice video, with a lot of quality information! Many thanks for making it.
thanks for a very educational and great video. liked it. I learned a lot
I'm glad I ran acrosss this video, even though it a couple of years after the fact. Very informative and answered a question or two percolating in the back of my mind. Thank you, Flatband for posting this and I will continue to view your videos along with some of the other leaders in the sling-shot world. I've been the only one I've known for decades shooting them and experimenting with them, so I'm glad to see the re-kindled interest by the world.
Very informative flatband, love the style, look forward to more vids! - jonny
hi flatband good collection of slingshots
Pocket one is my favorite of the bunch ;-)
love it! nice work flatband
Thank's for posting, brilliant video very informative. I will subscribe.
Awesome presentation, I've always wanted to see the classic styles made in the USA.
Although I am was born in Los Angeles the styles I was raised knowing are Mexican slingshot styles which some are similar.
Obviously some differences which is a treat to me to have seen these classic American slingshot styles.
Thank you for this..

Good to hear from you Lord. I always thought I was one of the few too! Glad to have another 'Experimenter" in the mix.
@Flatband Thanks a lot for the great info, just found your videos last night keep up the awsome videos!!!!!I subscribed!!
you are awesome, flatband.
you remind me of walter white from breaking bad in this video.
you are very informative for a novice.
im bj000 on slingshot forum.. you older guys (no offence) are my inspiration. i am still very new to slingshots but i am an adult and i can do whatever i want with my free time lol and i have decided to make slingshots instead of make digital graphic art pieces that will not exist without electricity...
slingshots are cool. obviously
thanks again.
very informative - thanks !
Hey thanks BJ! Appreciate the kind words. I'm always learning something about slingshots. We say: For a simple forked stick,it sure is complicated! Truth!
hi gary, nice to see u! fine video!!!!!
I just bought some of your slingshot rubber on ebay, yesterday. You ship quick.
this is awesome , thanks I subscribed :)
Good information, thanks
Thanks for the comment guys! Ashab, as far as loading the Widow with flats, great move. It will increase your accuracy. The powere depends on the cut of rubber and what ammo your using. Marbles are good for short range plinking,steel good for targets. lead best for hunting. Hope it helps!
Hi Jorge, your best bet is to build one for yourself. Not too many guys make them and hardly anyone sells them, Good luck!
Hey good vid when can you get the other vid up on band attachment I wanna put flatbands on my blackwidow will doing this add much more power also how much better are steel bbs than marbles might get some lead but there not cheap thank's.

Hi Bud, the way I do it ( and I love putting flats on rod frames)is place the flat rubber against the outside of the prong rod, and start wrapping and stretching thin pieces of rubber around the rubber and the prong real tight. Put the band on about an inch or so, wrap and then tie it off with a square knot. Works great!
wow! where can you buy that huge starship?
Nice vid Flatband.
9 Gramm
@Flatband how can the flats be put on the blackwidow or better yet whats the best attachment for it! thanks
@sohy3010 You can't buy that one Bud. That was made by a great shooter named "Blue Skeen". He gave me that one. Pretty cool huh?
Nice collection flatband!
What is the maximum speed you reached with the last sling?
Happy new year!!!
