What are yalls thoughts on these things? Ive been looking into them alot lately and it seems there are some guys out there taking some crazy things with them. (grizzlys,moose a 10' MAKO LOL) I watched a video where they are bow fishing and I must say it looks really fun kind of a mix of child hood slingshot and grown man bowfishing. The "bad [censored] slingshot" looks really neat but after finding out they have a $130 price tag I decided Im going to try to replicate one, seems I can do it for around $20 or so. I guess what Im asking do yall think its ethical to be slingshotting arrows at game animals? Im on the fence....

X2 Have shot some sling bows and cannot recommend them for game.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Yea, I think it be neat to keep in the rod locker for bowfishing on those slow days or maybe even spot light some rabbits I just cant see chancing a deer with one let alone a bear or moose!
