I've ordered a cheapo Marksman type slingshot for a low budget slingbow project<br><br>Questions<br>What arrow rest are you using<br>Have you changed or cut down the bands<br>Length and modification of arrows<br>Have you changed the pouch<br><br>Can you aim the thing and hit anything?<br><br><i>Is a slingbow even worth spending any time and money ?</i><br>
I love the one i made. i use a 3/8ths eyebolt for a giude. i replaced the tubes with flatbands. i use standard walmart arrows though i could use longer ones as iv got a pretty long draw and i use a nock not a pouch simular to jorgs on his slingbow. ill post some pics when i figure out how. iv found the further forward your guide is the more stable the arrows are in the air
So I ordered a cheapo slingshot from ebay<br>It's crap and one of the bands broke after less than 10 shots with 9mm steel ball !<br><br>Let me know which slingshot and bands you are using for your slingbow.
