Slinging since 2011
My name is Adam and I grew up in the woods of Northern California. I'm the middle child of 3 red headed brothers and got my first slingshot when I was 4 years old.
We had a hay bale target range in back that we directed a growing arsenal of projectile weapons at. We had bows, crossbows, bb guns, 22's and paintball guns but the slingshot was tops. Stuffed in a back pocket and taken for a hike, it led to endless amusement and mischief. If we weren't shooting targets and cans we were playing tag, building forts and staging mock battles or swimming in the lake.
Twenty-odd years and a quarter-million slingshots later, I'm still doing the same thing — finding good forks, sanding them smooth, and sending them off to back pockets everywhere.
So you ask yourself "what the heck am I going to do with a slingshot?" Here's the thing. We make slingshots, we don't tell you what to do with slingshots. Stick it in your back pocket. Make big plans or make no plans but get outside. You'll know when it's time to use it. Whether you're lobbing rocks into a mirror pond or lobbing rocks at an alligator blocking the trail (true story). The point is you're outside and you're going places, hopefully places you shouldn't be (like abandoned buildings). The slingshot is the perfect catalyst for mischief and you just have to roll with it. Remember it's the trouble that gets you the story — and personally speaking, I'm here for the stories (but also mostly the trouble :)
