Forgot to mention my brother and I killed a lot of rattlesnakes on my father in law's ranch between Cody and Yellowstone. When we had them we used old ball bearings! Learned from my dad! Joe

Looks like exercise band material. The big box store based in Arkansas carries 'em.

Joe,
I know what you mean about the name. When I was a kid, my Papaw would correct me that a "slingshot" was the name for the leather thong with a pouch that you slung around to throw the rock... like David used to kill Goliath, but that a "flip" was the name for the type that used rubber bands. That didn't keep me from calling my rubber band type device a slingshot, but I do remember to this day that the proper name is "flip". He has been gone for over 20 years now, and it still makes me smile to remember him.

Helmet,
It is exercise band. I bought a bunch of it at Walmart and cut it into strips.
