Vietnam Slingshot Vertical Holding Short Pull Aiming Method

The aiming method of Vietnamese slingshot with vertical grip and short pull is as follows:

1. Vertical aiming: The so-called vertical aiming means that the hand holding the bow handle is positioned vertically under the slingshot and the upper bow eye is parallel.

When aiming, the left (right) hand holds the slingshot tightly, the arm is slightly bent and pushed out in parallel, the right (left) side of the body is backward, the waist is straight, the back is slightly bent, and the feet stand in a T-shape.

Grasp the bag with the right (left) hand and straighten it parallel. If the thumb of the right (left) hand is close to his right (left) nose tip or right left cheek after pulling the bow, aim at the target with the right (left) eye through the skin-left (right) arch eye.

Second, horizontal aiming: the body shape, step, standing, bow posture, aiming posture and action essentials of horizontal aiming are the same as those of vertical aiming, and there is not much difference.

In the horizontal aiming exercise, the hand holding the bow holds the slingshot horizontally, the eye of the bow is vertical, and the back of the hand holding the bow is upward. Grasp the leather pocket with your right (left) hand and lift the tendon upward with your thumb. The advantage of horizontal aiming is that it is labor-saving when pulling the bow, easy to pull the bow full and strong in shooting. The disadvantage is that the aiming accuracy is not as high as that of vertical aiming after the bow is pulled.

Slingshot is a cold weapon or a game tool. Slingshot is generally made of branches in the shape of a "ya", with epithelial tendons at both ends of the upper end and a piece of skin wrapped in the body. Strength depends on the tension of the rubber band. The greater the tension of the rubber band, the greater the power of the slingshot. A long-range weapon that fires projectiles with a bow. In ancient times, projectiles were mostly used for hunting.

In ancient poetry, there is a description of "breaking bamboo and bamboo and flying soil to eat meat" It means cutting bamboo to make bows and shooting birds and animals with clay balls. Later, it developed into a martial arts instrument. There are many ways to launch a projectile, such as "Su Qin carries a sword" and "Zhang Fei shoots a horse".

Zhang Xian, a Shen Lu legend who sent his son to China, is an expert in using slingshots. Leonardo da Vinci in Europe also suggested launching smelly bombs with slingshots. Because it is a dangerous weapon, please don't shoot people indiscriminately.
