Next up was an archery release aid, which don’t seem to bad in my very limited experience, it’s very snatchy and needs be smoother. But does come with Allen keys to adjust it so will see. Then bought a target , which turned out to be a fancy carrier bag you fill yourself lol . So will fill and see .

O Leo Leo Leo you have had your pants pulled down and been bummed off Temu ! Following Didos excellent Temu buying experience, I decided to purchase some archery items . The first was a 3D foam pidgin target for £6 , which looks more like a rubber chicken from a Norman Collier comedy sketch, it’s as flat as feck lol. Next was a pair of realtree joggers £6.80, now I normally wear walking gear for hopping the hedge and mooching. Believe me these are no Bill Jordan pattern . They are massive in size and I look like a cross between Africa Bombarter and MC Hammer going to the Moss Side carnival l

Very easy to get, you would be surprised at the amount of people on self prescribed TRT. Just find a trusted lab for your gear that's legit stuff and get bloods done regular private through post and get results in email. Medicheck do them. There is a well known UK TRT specialist doctor .called Doug Savage of the Ledger Clinic. My friend does all is IT stuff, I met Doug at his home and had a very interesting informal chat on the benefits of TRT. Was very interesting stuff ! It's not widely recognised over here is TRT treatment like it is in the States.

Just add a nosey on it, and came off after spending £70 on probably total cap lol.

Had a practice sesh today and tubes snapped on me, I thought a little premature tbh. So I emailed Simple Shot in the states , had a response within 15 minutes. They said the bands should have lasted longer. They said they would send me a free set out as compliments. Within another 15 mins an email they had processed the order. Absolutely outstanding customer service!! If only other companies were the same. I can’t recommend simple shot enough. Above and beyond.

Really ? As far up as Birmingham ?

I agree pal !!!! My grandfather would turn in his grave if he could see the mess we are in now

He gave them me before he passed away. Very proud to have them on my wall.

My grandfather on my dad's side was a spitfire pilot in ww2. Just 19 years old , went and did a crash course learning to fly in Canada then he was up there and at them. Got shot down by the Gerry, but luckily survived. He died when I was in my early teens. I remember a very clever switched on serious man, with all scaring to the side of his face from the shrapnel that hit him in the face when he got hit. The average life expectancy of a spitfire pilot during ww2 was apparently just 4 weeks. These fellas had balls of steel. After the army he went to become a small fairly successful businessman

Civil War, bit disappointing really. Was ok ish, I just expected it to be a really good film. You no when you hype something up in your mind then its disappointing. So it's a 5/10 for me. That's me Barry Norman saying goodnight.

How far north have boar travelled ?

Finally got arrows finished then a test run in front of kennels at beer cans at 10 meters. Was good fun lol
-
Next I got the slider things that you tie your line onto and then I drilled a small hole in the shaft of arrow and fitted a bolt ( am yet to put epoxy glue round bolts yet ) this bolt asks as a stop for your slider so you can reel targets inn
-
So for a bit of fun I purchased a reel seat and put a fishing reel on the slingbow. And purchased some slider things for the arrows. And had a crack at shooting beer cans in front of the kennels and reeling the cans back to me. Thinking that on my permission is a small river and I might make some floating targets and practice at hitting them on the move on the river and reeling them back into me for a bit of a crack and fun and summat a bit different than just practicing on the bag .

Yeah it's all interesting stuff, totally get were your coming from wandering around with a compound bow like Rambo. Them diablos look cool and bombproof and the starship should in theory generate more power. Got to admit I've really shortened the bands on mine to get as much power as possible, and there's no way I'm pulling this back regular with my fred elliot fingers, so the archery release aid makes it ten times easier and I get a good practice session in with out it fooking my shoulder up ! I always thought they was a bit of a gimmick, but I am proper impressed ! Coz at the end of the day

Yess pal I use a rangefinder, use to use it when practicing shooting at distance with my cattys. So has come in real handy while learning the slingbow. And ten yards would be ideal shot range , if we was in certain states in America were it's legal to hunt with a slingbow. Looks like the ideal way to shoot them is from a blind or tree stand and max range 20 meters of so. Would love to go abroad with an outfitter and do it. I find all the large game bow hunting on YouTube very exciting to watch. I was recently looking at mechanical broadheads. All very interesting stuff. Finally " while e

O don't worry we've been a nanny state for years Got to be honest am having so much fun learning the slingbow, but I do think knowing how to shoot a catty has helped. I think if I was in a country were you could hunt with one legally. With my novice understanding of them I think about 28 yards would be your maximum range with one. But are good fun down the garden.
-
No mate targets only for slingbow. So just some beer can blasting for me I'm afraid. But we are allowed to hunt with a slingshot though. Am surprised slingshot are banned over there.
-
Also I bought some foam tipped heads for shooting at home on beer cans , was quite good fun and hits them with a right wack and sends cans 3 foot up in the air. Nice bit of fun while trying get my eye inn.

20 meters

Bit more practice this morning. I took a shot to see how far an arrow will go off the slingbow before it drops. 55 meters it managed, obviously no power in the shot at that range . Here is a couple of groups at 15.5 meters then a crap group at 20 meters, need more practice at 20 meters
