    Shooting a blowgun was the most intuitive weapon I've ever picked up. Took me about 15 minutes playing around with it to realize I didn't need to aim just stare at the target and it lines right up
    Idk if it's because of placement over the mouth but it's mind-blowing how easy these are to use.

      When I got mine, I spent a solid 6 hours drilling holes and stacking darts. The first time I hit one dart with another I thought it was crazy and out of place but then after the 15 or 16th time of it happening, it becomes kind of annoying because it wrecks all your cups lol.

      I thought the same thing and “intuitive” was the exact word I used when describing the ease of shooting one of these to someone else as well. It’s really amazing how easy it is.

    Thanks Tim for your blowgun advice. I have the Cold Steel blowgun, but have been looking at your SlockMaster Viper. I love shooting the blowgun, but in our state of Arizona they are illegal to hunt with. Went to Alaska last summer, but Canada totally outlaws them. So did not get to slock any grouse, ptarmigan, pine squirrels or snowshoe rabbits. Appreciate your videos!

    That was good advice about slowly drawling air back Tim thanks for the tip . I always will wait until the last second and use my finger to push the end thru and take the shot while the dart is sliding down the barrel so that’s good to know . Love your videos, love your store I have bought a few things from you 👍

    I bought a Viper well over a year ago. Had that question about dart's not fitting the tube. Set 2 emails with pictures showing the gap around the cup in the tube. Never got any replies. So I fixed it. I took some clear HD gorilla tape, has a slick finish, made a wrap around end of the cup about a 1/4 to 3/8" deep. Then trimmed to fit the end of the cup with a razor. No more slide out and they come out like a bullet ! Some cups will take 2 wraps.

    I find it easiest to NOT fight the "double vision." If you let the double-vision happen and put the target somewhere in the middle of the two tips of the barrel, it centers it left-to-right pretty well. Elevation becomes a practice, but left-to-right becomes easy

The kids love popping balloons and it provides instant feedback to train their shooting technique and keep them interested. Great family fun! My 13 year old daughter is absolutely deadly. She’s ready to slock something.
