Talking Sling shot

Just found this site and thought I would post it. When i was younger it was something that I liked to do as i did not have the money to get a gun, and now that i can afford one I dont want one. So I may try the sling again . http://www.slinging.org/articles.html

When I was a kid I used a catapult a lot,but never a sling.
I read somewhere that most Ironage fort in Britain were found to be well stocked with sling stones.
