3 Basic Ways to Throw with a Shepherd Sling with David the Shepherd

There are 3 basic ways to throw with a shepherd sling:
1. Underhand "Beginner" Throw
Place the end with the loop around your finger and hold the knotted end between your thumb and index finger. Put an object (I like to throw marshmallows) securely in the pouch. Take aim and make sure that it’s safe to throw. Swing the sling three times underhand, let go of the knotted end, and enjoy slinging.
2. Overhead Throw
Some people call this the helicopter throw. It's very similar to the underhand throw, but instead you simply swing it above your head. Watch for people around you!
3. Overhand Throw
This is sometimes called the figure 8 throw. Instead of swinging it three times around, you drop it behind your head and then release over the top.

    • It was a miracle, you can be the greatest shot in the world but as a human being you are fallible. Take the greatest shooter in the world and get him drunk the night before and see how well he shoots.

  • Ancient Roman Legionaires were all trained to use balearic slings in addition to javelin, spear, gladius sword, shields and grappling. Traditionally there are two slings carried in sling cultures: a longer sling (for long range volleys) worn tied about the waist and a short sling (for shorter range accuracy) worn tied about the head.
