I play with a slingshot, angled grip estimating strikes, what are some tips to improve my slingshot?

Hello, my friend! I am also a slingshot player, and like you, I am a slant grip estimator. Here are some of my feelings about practicing slant grip estimator, I hope it can help you.

Dedicated to the slingshot novice friends who practice slant grip estimation

As a novice slingshot player, you must have been like me, for your own slingshot skill is always missing to improve and worry, and occasionally will be for the fly over the head of the two two delicious meat in the sky and salivate, beating the chest, right? Such days are not easy to bear, think of the hard work you have done, those days when your fingers are cracked and bleeding, and your arms are sore and weak, are they still not easy? After all, slingshot is not just a brute force to practice hard to achieve mastery, which also pay attention to the use of small skills. I personally have been playing with the bow more than three years, from the initial brute force rampage, to the present is basically a small day of the gods (two plates of bird meat, a glass of beer) as you wish, the practice of which came up with a number of tips, dedicated to the practice of oblique estimate hit the confused slingshot friends.

In these years, I have contacted many friends of the slingshot, and all the friends of the slingshot novice, like to play the big configuration, the steel ball is always used to 9MM, 10MM, not at all stingy. When I first came into contact with the slingshot, also with the front speed 2050 four-strand plus 9MM beads, feel the power is very good, but not allowed to play, think, pull 2050 four-strand full bow is some hand shaking, practiced for a period of time, 10 meters to hit the bottle cap 10 rings scattered in 7 rings or so, more strenuous. Changed the 2050 four-strand plus 7MM steel ball, it is pure bullshit, pulling less than the cheek to slide fly out.

Then I thought that since the 2050 four-strand pull full will be hand shaking, then reduce the power, replaced the 1745 four-strand, with 8MM steel ball, the power of the same is very good, the accuracy is also more than the previous 2050 quasi a lot of, and now 10 meters to hit the bottle cap, the 8 ring is very stable.

And then later also tried the power of some of the smaller tendons, there are 1842 four-stranded, with 7MM steel beads, the power and steel beads on the small side, if the beads with 8MM steel beads, beads just right, but the power is slightly smaller, but the accuracy is still very good.

I am now playing 2040 four-strand with 8MM steel ball, feel very good, basically where to hit. This is my slingshot so long since I feel the most comfortable with the leather pocket I always use the slingshot hunter network to buy microfiber two-hole leather pocket, more durable, but also does not hurt the hand, feel more comfortable. When playing the slingshot, the posture is a little delicate, I am playing the oblique estimate to play, I personally believe that the bow should be held perpendicular to the ground into a 45-degree oblique angle, so that the posture is more energy-saving, but also the most stable grip. The arm holding the bow should be straight, the back elbow should be parallel to the shoulder as much as possible, the leather pocket close to the edge of the eye,, each time, pay a little attention to their own posture, the eyes look straight at the target, pull the full bow on the hair, do not hesitate, when it is time to shoot. Small details noted, that the rest is to see their willpower and perseverance, believe it, where there is a will there is a way, cheer up, friends, believe in your efforts, one day, you are also a master of the slingshot!
