Bags ontop of the washing machine same in my house congrats on the baby .... u got me into sling shots it's not easy to get use to I'm taken all the advice on board but hitting low an the target u use a resin sling shot an shoot 8m balls with 18 to 12 an .80 big draw but alot of practice
I use a cheep Freehawk tubular catapult off Amazon and it shoots great but i dont know exactly how fast my projectiles are going (.451&9mm) have thought about converting it to flatbands. 👍 thank you.
Congrats on the little one mate!
It's like you're telepathic or something - I've just taken delivery of my first jig and band material (GZK green 0.62 of course) and was going to start cutting this afternoon. Top notch vid as always, Chris. Keep up the great work, sir! 👏

Great video 👍
Chris, I'm in the u.s and I'm shooting a scout xt and a scout lt. 32 inch draw. As you have stated in previous video, I would like to shoot the same .66 gzk latex and modify band ratio based on projectile size 3/8, 7/16, or 1/2. Any basic information or where to look? Great videos and lots of good,well thought out shared information. Keep it up!!!!
I made a badass section of table for bandset build and tying that is removable from my workbench that folds up and tucks into my "weapons satchel" if need be. I was having such a good time making custom bandsets and badass double layered multi-type leather pouches for my current ammo situation which is 5mm bearings, 10mm bearings, .50cal ½" big steel balls, marbles, and real neat plastic beads id say about 9mm with a hole thru the center for kids to make necklaces from the craft shop, whats cool is due to that hole thru the center they make a intimidatingly horrific whistle type sound while in flight. They sound like the sound XF that would be used for a bow n arrow released by a marvel character.. wicked as hell sounding I thing and they fly true and fast with relatively light bands. Anyway I made 2 versions of each bandset one short anchor point draw, and one half butterfly long pull... About to go outside in a bit to raise war against some unsuspecting cans, bottles and whatever else gives me funny looks or any type backtalk lol
Awesome videos man! I am trying to make a sling shot gun and was wondering if you recommend these bands or the more tube style bands? Thanks again!
Me gustan las resorteras homie 👍
Do you have a video how you explain how you site and be able to hit consistent
Would gzk .72 be ok for 8 mm lead weighing about 3 grams and what taper would you recommend
Great shooting.. ferret thought he was going hunting lol
Thank you
Nice one
What cut would you use for 7mm steel? And can you hunt with 7mm? I've not seen any one talk about 7mm
Excellent,Thankyou
I’ve been using these green gzk bands and they keep snapping at the pouch, am I doing something wrong?
thanks for the vid how much costs that rubber roll plz
Thanks Chris
Just a tip for you if you wanna sharpen them is snippers cut little strips of tinfoil this helps sharpening them

I'm still new in this catapult hobby. What's the ideal ammo to shoot with 0.66 GZK band?
Hi pal. Great video. New to this so just a quickie. Getting green .66 GZK based on ya viid. I’ve got 65cm draw and going to be using 9.5 mm steel for hunting rabbits and pigeon inside 30ft. Got any idea of the taper please ? Thinking 20/15? Cheers
Can you link everything you use luke what's the cutting tool your using weres ya get the elastic string
Nice slingshot that one is Chris I will try and make that one wish me look
At this Time I’m shooting a daisy tube slingshot. I want to order a band style sling shot how would one know if it’s ttf bands vs otf band ? Thanks in advance also I live in the states.
Hi I am an Italian boy passionate about slingshot, you are a, big, I use the Hammer TTF GZK with the 0.66 GZK Green elastic band I have a 800mm arm opening, you can give me an advice on the measures of the bands to use for hunting and shooting to the target, thanks greetings.
Hi - Can you put the link where to buy the tools and template you used to have all bands cut and the pouch holder? Very good and informative video.
Good video m8! What's the difference between gzk green, yellow and black? And what do you think about precise 0.7? Cheers!

I have a draw of 93cm and want to shoot 9.5mm or 1/4oz lead. What size, taper and thickness of band would you reccomend?
"The more time your balls accelerate" food for thought lads..
what thickness i should use for 9mm ball?
Where can I find those green Ott band sets from you Chris?
I need that stencil for tapered bands.. Where you get it from mate
Excellent shooting! Are you using a point on your fork to aim, or just instinct aiming?
What are the measurements you use to cut your garters and what caliber is the garter?
how many mm thick did you buy the gzk tape?
When you cut tapers when cut can they be mixed up when cut ❤
Let me ask you how much green gzk wire you are using. and size you are using?
With the .66 using 8mm but could you still use 3/8
What taper you cut on this Precise 0.7 for 8mm steel?
Any difference between flat top band vs Side band?
NICE BRO
Hi Chris! What size is the board you use to cut the elastic? I wanted to buy it online but I don't know what size to select (on aliexpres)
Hi, Am just getting into this, I have got some pre made bands from aliexpress. I have since found out that they are ttf tied bands and my catapult is ott, will this make a great difference to my shooting? Also my shoots seem to go to the right a bit, any advice or should I just keep aiming to the left? I hold with my left hand. Love the videos, learning a lot and just enjoy watching them. Congrats on the baby.

Hiya mate you've asked some good questions with no short answer. Your shots going left could be a number of things. Try adjusting your head tilt and or anchor point. Have a look at my aiming video

Also ttf bands aren't as easy to aim down ott but doesn't really make a difference to the actual shot. Also I'd recommend buying bands off HTH in the uk or Simple shot if you're in the states. Or try making your own

@@CatapultCarnage thanks for the advice, I'll try those tips, see if I can get some results with them. I'm going to try making my own band at some point, I'll definitely hit up HTH for the band rolls though. Cheers for taking the time to reply buddy..
Chris, do you shoo GZK .66 all year round for hunting m8.
hello any link for the string you used? thanks
Thanks
For hunting how many power in lbs we need?
What is the thickness of your rubber ?
hey chris...glad to meet you. i need to buy the bands that you show. i from venezuela in Barinas state.
Where did you get the rubber binding apparatus, man please tell me the address you received
Mate I’m tying to buy a Titan ott.... please how can I buy one?

Can you get fiskers rotary cutters with titanium blades over there where you are? If so buy one the blades are lazer sharp and stay sharp for one hell of a long time!

Hi Chris, Have you ever tried Simple shot black? It's great latex, I use GZK .7 and Thera band gold, and simple shot black .7. I think from my own experience that Thera band gold and Simple shot black have far better elasticity than GZK. What are your thoughts on this?
Please, what is the thickness of the rubber,or didn't said or I passed it
Where do you get GZK?

Hi Chris ,,am I stupid? When you say divide draw length by 5.5 for your band length, does it not depend on thickness and band width?
@CatapultCarnage
5 жыл бұрын
No mate. But you can always alter the cut and length to suit. I stick to 5.5 always
Bought these bands after watching this video and I must say 0.62 black is faster than this 0.66 green.
Congratulations on the kiddo, mate. it's survival mode for the first 6-8 months then you start finding sleep again
Hi, I want to start shooting butterfly , i now shoot 7 1/2 tapered 1 inch to 3/4 and shoot 3/8 ammo 30 inch draw , what length of bands do I need
Hi Chris. Be interested to know what speed you get with 8 mm and they gzk green. Thanks, Harry
