youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 ha depends some do some dont when target shooting i always do then i walk the shots in by aiming with the top fork. but when im out hunting i will aim with one eye get relative to the target then open it and fire when it feels right, you will soon get the hang of it with practice so you use three different types of ammo and you keep one eye closed but then open it .and then i got lost on the top fork part . ha ye sorry for that, i use 12mm lead now for hunting but im going to use 9.5mm for pigeons with single theraband, i use marbles for target practise. i close one eye and aim at the target using the top fork as i hold the catty at 90°, but then before i release the pouch i open the closed eye then release when it feels right. hope that makes better sence, its just a habit that i do and that works for me but obviously wont work for everyone Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Are you suggesting that people are shooting at stuff just to hurt it for their own pleasure? Or are you saying that they are trying to kill it but aren't accurate enough? Your hurting stuff for fun comment doesn't make sense. Catapults are an accurate and efficient tool for hunting, if used within their limitations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am suggesting that more than a few will be using a tool thats not queit upto the job, they are not very good with it to start with and will trying to use it beyond whatever its limitations are......then going out and cutting about the countryside just loosing off at stuff trying for a "hit" with no real care of if it kills or not. They just want to go out and shoot at things for a laugh. Thats what I am suggesting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 i bought a black widow when i was school. there was a few maggies and crows f****d off with shattered wings during that wee fad i had, something im not proud of when looking back on it. im sure there are excellent shots with a catty,but id hazard a guess and say there a lot who are shit aswell.

kranky 507 Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 I'd say that there are far greater numbers with shotguns and air rifles who cause wounding, albeit at greater distances and larger quarry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fair comment matey, but I know which one I would rather have pointing at me id say a catapult would do you more damage over a long distance than a shotgun lol obviously not a rifle tho!! but a big bb in the side of your head from a proper powerful catapult could kill a man quite easily or if not f**k u up good an proper lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
