Description
This listing contains TWO slings:•
The first sling (with a Grizzly brown full-grained leather pouch and desert camo cords) is designed for higher velocity, greater distance, and stronger hit power. Sling is approx. 29.5" long folded, and is styled like a shepherd sling.
•
The second sling (also
with a
Grizzly brown full-grained leather
pouch
and desert camo cords
) is designed for training, building accuracy, and shorter distances. Sling is 20" long folded. The shorter length will help you to more easily control the point of release so that you can more easily grow in your ability to strike your target.
Each sling has the following features:
•
The pouch, finger-loop, and finger buttons are all made of a 5-6 oz.
Grizzly brown full-grained leather
. This leather is thicker than the previous versions of this sling set by about 30%
. Because the finger loop and buttons are made of leather, they provide a far more comfy grip and release than a traditional sling's corded loop & knot.
•
The pouch and finger loop are reinforced for durability with brass grommets
• The desert camo cord is made from a sturdy Mil Spec 7 Strand Type III 550 Nylon Parachute Cord.
DUE TO THE HIGH DEMAND FOR DESERT CAMO PARACORD & THESE SLINGS, THIS SLING WILL BE OUTFITTED WITH EITHER RATTLESNAKE DESERT CAMO (see picture 4, left) OR GOLDEN SAND DESERT CAMO (see picture 4, right).
Please send me a message if you want a custom sized order with larger quantities and I can add to the number of slings available if my inventory allows.
Slings can be excellent resource:
• For survival situations - as slings can be some of the most lightweight and effective kinds of survival gear!
• Because rocks are almost everywhere (and therefore not provided in this auction), you’ll have access to an enormous (and cheap) supply of ammo!
• Because the inside of the parachute cord contains 7 white strands of strong nylon material that can be used as fishing string!
• Because slings are lightweight and portable and won’t bog down your survival kit!
• Because slings provide more velocity and distance than a slingshot.
· For geocaching treasure! Shepherd slings can be great items to leave in a remote geocaching location (along with the QR code pictured above), as those who find the sling can find AND use their newly discovered treasure! The QR code pictured above can be printed and placed with the sling in the geocaching location, scanned with a cell-phone (by the person who finds it), and the code will send you to my video on how to throw a rock with a shepherd sling :)
• For teaching the background of biblical stories: See, for example 1 Sam. 17 (David & Goliath); or Judges 20:16 (Benjamites who were remarkably accurate with slinging stones)
How do I use this sling?

• While slings are fun, keep in mind that slings should never, under any circumstances be used to harm other people. Always keep safety first, and look out for others!
Please send me a message if you want a custom sized order with larger quantities and I can add to the number of slings available if my inventory allows.
Always be aware of your surroundings when using a sling and never use a sling in such a way that a mis-aimed rock could strike a person. User assumes full responsibility for the safe use of the sling.
