Do i need to add anything with it like different band sets before i order. The band sets it comes with ate for 8mm ammo by looks of it. Is 8mm good enough to hunt with. If so am i better off with steel or lead? Didnt realise what i was getting myself into thought i would just be getting a catapult and job done. Didnt realise the ammount of variations! Head is fried and havnt even got one yet! Hahaha Expand Think the only way you can find out is try different band sets and ammo for your self. A lot of lads swear by 8mm steel I prefer the 11mm with a. band strength. I know lads who use only 10mm lead and won't use anything else.

Expand Your be holding ya pouch too low on ya face and away from it. They aint guns it takes abit of practice thats part of the fun. I know people that never aim shoot pebbles and hosepipe tube and are decent shots they just know where its going. Keep practicing 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neil r 1,902 Posted January 3, 2024 Report Share Posted January 3, 2024 I started with a 100mm fork one and then bought a wasp stinger which is 85mm and was shooting high using the same anchor point which was the corner of my mouth . It was doing my head in but I saw a vid that said to move my anchor point up so I moved it to my cheekbone and it worked perfectly . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stubblebubble 46 Posted January 4, 2024 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2024 Another question lads. Lol. Would draw length effect accuracy? It obviously came with pre made band setsbut ive just stuck em straight on with the band clamps should i have measured draw length and maybe cut em if needed? How would i know what length to cut em?

terryd 8,709 Posted January 4, 2024 Report Share Posted January 4, 2024 Yes as far as mine is just past corner of my mouth. If I go further back then my gerbil chops with push it out further to side. Took me while to figure that out. The shorter the better for me. But I also use nice light bands. Don’t get on with heavy bands at all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
