In ancient China, there was a "shooting" tool, that is, a slingshot. The principle of slingshots is the same as that of bows and arrows, which are all launched by ejection force, but slingshots use projectiles, while bows and arrows use arrows.

According to "The Spring and Autumn Annals of Wu Yue", Volume 9 "Playing Songs": "Broken bamboo, continued bamboo, flying soil, killing each other (the ancient word' meat')." This poem describes the hunting process of cutting down bamboo, making slingshots, shooting projectiles and shooting birds and animals with short sentences and simple rhythms.

However, because slingshots are lighter than bows and arrows, they are easier to carry and use, and their close-range lethality is not weak, so they are widely spread among the people. In many martial arts novels, slingshots are used as weapons by chivalrous men. However, due to the limitation of its own function, slingshot has little influence in the history of sports in China, and it has never been elegant, so it can only exist as an entertainment tool.
