    I;ve got a black widow but never had much success with it (target only, not going 'live' till I'm any good) might check out youtube if there is any help out there.

    Not used a slingshot for years. Thinking my only chance of making a kill would be if I used them little black Russian grenades as ammo

    There is pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes,
    By the deep sea, and music in its roar, I love not man the less, but Nature more.

    Because 4 of my cattys are for tubes, I used red tube band, but have modded one to use Thera band, and I must say I like it better, if I could get some Thera band in the tube I would give that a go

    How accurate and lethal could they be at say 20'? I'd prob still sleep easy if winged a rat, but things I like to eat I'd want a clean kill.
