Color me impressed!
I’m not bragging, but I seem to have similar (not as good though) aiming techniques and accuracy with a rubber band as this guy does. I can’t explain it except for muscle memory and good eye-hand coordination.
That being said, that guy could probably shoot the you-know-what’s off a fruit fly.
I was DAMNED accurate with a sling shot when I was a kid. And, even though I’m right handed, I shoot a sling shot left handed.
Reminds me of my days on the Serengetti Plains bringing down rinoscurreses with my trusty slingshot.
Yep.
Got a trophy one hanging on the wall. His antlers must be like 147 points.
Rufus had some serious skills - I thought that video looked ancient, and it is. The man died in 1994 at age 74 and was a guest on the Tonight Show in 1986, where he shot an object out of Johnny Carson’s hand. All of the slingshots he made over the years have serial numbers and some are for sale on Ebay.
It ain’t the weapon, it’s the person wielding it.
