Guest The Shaman Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 I used to do a lot of catapulting as a kid, homemade ones, the on to Milbro then tried Black Widows. Became a bloody good shot - also bloodied my thumbs a few times too. Though I shoot now, I have very fond memories of the old catty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J Darcy 5,871 Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 my cattie is from an old oak tree and latex rubber. had rabbits, pheasants and ducks with it. top class, but you need to get close. tried the black widow and diablo but not accurate enough IMHO. once head shot a pheasie in front of about 6 lads at night with a cattie about 12 years ago. good weapon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
