I’m 71 yrs old now and have just bought a kit from cattyshack. Love it. The last time I shot a catty was well over 50 yrs ago! We used to hunt high and low for the right shaped branch of Hazel and used 1/4” sq rubber bands tied onto leather strips cut from old shoes. No steel balls in those days, we had to make do with pebbles! What fun we had! I think your videos are excellent, very well put together and simply explained. Many thanks.
This is probably some of the best slingshot shooting advice I have seen in a while! I really appreciate you taking the time to share this with us brother! Cheers!👊🙏
Your consistency in different situations is AMAZING. I shoot decently until I try to instruct people or do a little fun competition... then I can't hit a barn door 😕.
Bought my first slingshot since I was a kid just over a week ago (I'm 48) Watching your videos I've learned so much and within such a short space of time I'm getting pretty accurate already! Thanks very much I'm loving it! 😁👍
Brilliant video john, very instructive and easy to follow, positive,entertaining and informative. Some of the best slingshot shooting I have seen in a long time! Your videos have really been helping me improve my accuracy 👊👍
Fantastic straight forward tips / advice, couldn't be simpler or easier to understand, and great shooting John, thanks so much for posting such important advice for anyone wanting to up their game, but as you said, just have fun with it.......I'm more a sling builder than shooter, but maybe one day I'll have more time to shoot.
20 out of 20 on a small spinner is extremely good shooting, man! Wow. I could maybe do that on a soda can sized target...on a good day....with no wind... hah! Great tips as well!
I am from the Philippines one of your subscriber and an avid fan. I am a newbies in slingshot shooting.Thank you for sharing your knowledge shooting a slingshot I've learned that there is no difference between shooting OTT and TTF just concentrate on anchor and reference point....
Großartig vielen Dank. Ich habe eine Schleuder von dir vor Jahren mal gekauft. Musste diese allerdings noch für meine Hand zurecht feilen, aber sonst nach wie vor eine klasse Schleuder. 😊
Absolutely the best, easiest to understand and down to earth explanation. Too many of these “How to aim” videos are sooo complicated and poorly explained. THANK YOU FOR THIS! 🙏🏽🙏🏽💯💯🔥🔥 Reference-Anchor-Breathe-Stance… simple, down and dirty and perfectly explained
I recently purchased one of your slingshots off of eBay. It is the best slingshot I've tried and through following your instructions I was able to shoot a coke can top 6/10 times on my first day. Great job mate
Ey up John, enjoyed that, some great advice :) Not sure what happened to my Live comment! I'm just waiting on one of your new PPs, so looking forward to trying that. Got loads of cattys, but thought I owed you some custom! :D I'm nearly 61, and enjoy it more than ever, but just had to have a few months off after developing RSI in my thumb from too much shooting! Going out tomorrow, and I'll be taking my PPO :) Thanks again for all the great videos :)
Thanks for the tips! I've tried to move my anchor point higher and lower and when I do, I get fork hits here and there. Any way to improve and avoid that?
About time you started making a bunch of videos again Principles might be the same as yrs ago But New forums new people New rubber Its possible to get lost in the mix. Good job staying in the game GKJ!
Excellent accuracy, love it. As I'm new to this stuff I'm wondering how to ask for permission and how to find an owner of the forest or field? Any tips in this matter?
I’m just starting with flat bands John. I need an easy elastic so I can learn to aim without shaking. Is .50 a suitable one to buy? I can’t hit a barn door right now, even though I’m doing everything you say! 👍🇬🇧
'It's as simple as I showed you in the video', says Mr hot shot mofu. 😀 I dream of hitting it once in 20. I'm going down the woods tomorrow now and I'm gonna follow every point. I'll watch it again down there. I'd better take cardboard, an a4 sheet would still be a target for me. Thanks John, it's because of you I've found the only hobby that has lasted, made one today and re banded my ppmg. I might do a video.
i have only just started this great hobby/sport.. i purchased a Scout LT and fire OTT.... I'm in the process of deciding what size ammo i feel comfortable with ... toss up between 1/4" and 5/16 ... i found 3/8 too cumbersome . but for what ever reason , i seem to pull my shots from 30ft, about 8" left .... can't seem to line up correctly .
Thanks for the advice I'm going to try those tips. I've been moving my slingshot up or down not my anchor point.I'm definitely going to try it and also great shooting. How long has it taken you to get that accurate 🤔?
Nothing wrong with keeping the anchor point the same buddy and moving the reference, a lot of people do it that way, it’s just finding what works for u 👍
Great video very encouraging for newcomers, fantastic explanations and probably the best compressed shooters guide slingshots. Thanks for uploading mate 👍
Hi john, I have severed my finger, and had it stitched back on. And I was wondering if you have the same accuracy shooting with your non dominant hand.
Always completely mesmerising watching you hit that target so consistently. Just amazing pal. Notice how I get arm fatigue when I shoot also still working on the release. Cheers Oz
Great Advice, down to earth and worthy of a big thanks! I'm 78 shooting for 2 months, watched many videos but none compair to your advice and presention! Will definately apply the tips tomorrrow. Make more videos.
Outstanding shooting, eh, i'm just starting back up, been a very long time since i was using catty. I use to use black widow & steel bearings&or any half decent lil pebbles. Were nether that good, NOW it's all bit scientific 🤔🤪WoW it feels like eternity ago, nocking on 50 nowadays 😅🤔 Simple is always the best way 👏👏👏
Do you realize you are very annoying ? . . . you make shooting look so darn easy . . . Ha! Ha! . . I love ya man - I love your honesty and no bullshit attitude ! anyways, I am getting better with my shooting consistency . I make my own slingshots - been doing that since a kid - now 77 ! CHEERS and BEST of HEALTH to you my friend
I have one of the Birch Multiplex catty's from John and was looking to order another. It seems that he doesn't make them out of that material anymore though, does anyone know why please? Was it the cost, the time taken?
I started shooting slingshot again after over 30 years. I am much better now. I want to know, should l increase the distance beyond 12 yards or should l make my target smaller. At the moment l my target is a 80mm flipper.
At the end when you said I'll do 20 shots, I thought you were mistaken and would only do 10. 20 hits out of 20 shots ! and the 40mm spinner was moving. If this was an olympic sport you would be a gold medalist ! I must say very impressive.
Don’t forget the thumbs up 💯👻🕺😁🎯
#27 Thanks bub!
Top job on the video John!

Great video as always John.what light bands would you recommend for 9.5 steel?👍👍
Hi john, I have severed my finger, and had it stitched back on. And I was wondering if you have the same accuracy shooting with your non dominant hand.
Thank you John! This was REALLY helpful for me. Can't wait to get a couple of your catapults to try.
Always completely mesmerising watching you hit that target so consistently. Just amazing pal. Notice how I get arm fatigue when I shoot also still working on the release. Cheers Oz
Vary nice and informative video
How to shoot 90° accurately in (20-35) meter?please make a tutorial video as soon as possible.thank you.

You're the Robin Leach of slingshots bro!
Modest gifted shooter with free advice..auto TU channel... spinners False sense of accomplishment..
awesome accuracy
Maestro. thanks for such a deep lesson
I have one of the Birch Multiplex catty's from John and was looking to order another. It seems that he doesn't make them out of that material anymore though, does anyone know why please? Was it the cost, the time taken?
Great video
Thanks for this. I shoot both styles the same as well. Do you ever shoot tubes, looped or single?
Your channel is informative, interesting and then theres the accent 😊 Thank you brother it's always fun.
I have learnt the basic points of slingshot shooting from Ur Video clips.Thank U sir.
Great but the hand will get tired after a while. Not sure where you'd get a set up that you could hold all day as it were
How long have u been shooting for ,Sir
So big man can you give me a fair review of the milbro bloodstopper catapults are they any good that kind of thing, cheers
You didn't show us how much down or up right or left should be the fork tip to shoot that target.
John . You are the man mate . Thanks from Cornwall
Great vid. Lot's learned there. Thanks. AL.
I miss these videos! My apologies if you have said this in one of your previous videos - what size ammo do you use?
Shooting or fishing?
Excellent guidance! Thankyou John!
I started shooting slingshot again after over 30 years. I am much better now. I want to know, should l increase the distance beyond 12 yards or should l make my target smaller. At the moment l my target is a 80mm flipper.
Great video and great slingshots You selling I did buy a few Thanks
i like you shooting OTT john i use a lump of carpet as a target it shows you where it hits
What slingshots are you shooting there? I like the grooves for your fingers up near the forks
and I have to admit that my shaky hand making my accuracy missed a lot most of the time, even with 0.5mm taper. Let alone 0.70mm 😮💨
Luv IT!! Amazing! 😁👍👍👍
TTF doesn't slaps your fingers OTT does it sometimes
With gamekeeper john and chris graffin (catapult carnage) shareng thier knowledge.
Pushing the boundrys further guys
How do I buy one of your ghost slingshots
Great video, John! Thanks for the tips!
where u buying steel balls cheap enough to waste in the bush ?
At the end when you said I'll do 20 shots, I thought you were mistaken and would only do 10. 20 hits out of 20 shots ! and the 40mm spinner was moving. If this was an olympic sport you would be a gold medalist ! I must say very impressive.
Wow, amazing shooting! I'm brand new at this. Getting the Hammer Master collection on my birthday June 4. Hope to have an enjoyable hobby at 52.
John can the smallest Rabbit Stopper in Aluminum on Pro Shot be shot Pinch Grip? Someone said it is a PFS. Please clarify.
Yes it can buddy and it’s definitely not a PFS
Always a pleasure to see your videos John. I have been trying to find one of those 9.5mm Ammo Tubes, but not having any luck. Tom Vickers
Thanks a lot for the video.
How many tries did it take to hit that steel ball?
Thanks for this John. Spot on.
Awesome bit of shooting 👍
balls diameter mm.? tires are mm×mm.?
Are you left handed by the way, or are the videos reversed?
I’m right handed buddy
Rock solid advice!
What a great guy!
I go 45° shooting most time.
Thank you John.
Your a sharp shooter
Gee ... awesome.
How much € would you take 4 a private course?
Quality bit of shooting that 👌 awesome video to 👍
I like bands
👍❗️
