Went and did a little cabin at the lake slingin this weekend and wanted to share with you all ;)
65-70 meter shots according to the range finder with 160-180 g rocks. These are not distance shots but more power shots I'd say. Next time I go up I'll take some distance footage.
Enjoy
HuntsmanSling:
Here are some close up photos of some slings I've made. It's one of my favorite things to do! :)

Ed Brooks:
Cool looking slings. Do you make them from natural cordage? Ed
HuntsmanSling:
Thanks! I do I make them from an agave based hard fiber plant that I dye and treat. This is the same material used on the Balearic Islands to this day. I have however been weaving in tough spectra line into the last couple inches of the whip to make sure it lasts forever.
YosemiteBen:
now - a how to in the Build along section. Those are very nice slings. Plaiting?
