I am.  :)

My username is Dan on slinging.org, I've been doing it for 4-5 years now and I'm pretty much addicted to slinging.

I sling a few tennis balls when I don't have time to practice with my bow.

Here's a vid of my target slinging for you guys that haven't seen much slinging before.

I still can't compete against bows with my slings accuracy wise, but I've come a long ways and I plan to continue on. 

Slings are really awesome power wise, you just have to practice often and for a long time.  :)

I made a duct tape and shoelace sling when I was a teenager. Then I broke a window when a stone flew astray. That was the end of that.

Ifrit617:
Ive been slinging for probably 2 years now and really enjoy it. Like Dan, my accuracy is nowhere near bow level, but I can nail a 4x4 target at 15 yards every time. Best shot ever was on a 1 foot wide by 3 foot tall buoy about 150 yards away. Nailed it smack in the middle right where I was aiming.

Here are are few slings that I've made.

Nice. I like the leather one.
I can nail a 4 foot by 2 foot target 8 times out of 10 using gofl balls from 15 yards...
