    Still one of my most accurate styles despite the fact I much prefer other styles :D The fast rate of fire is definitely another plus for it though.

    Great video! This is also my favorite slinging style ! I also do a underhanded variant that’s great for distance. Keep up the great work!

    I only recently found out how this technique really works, and I find it to be very good for light bullets. this also coincides with many finds from anceinet times weighing around 18 g. in my opinion you show the process very well thanks for the great input

    Can be side arm but the point of greek is over hand for accuracy and consistent power

    I shoot greek and Apache overhand it's the most accurate . I can sling around 100 yards with a 36 inch sling and decent size rock and be accurate within inches within 25 yrds

    If you catch the trigger knot, you can achieve faster reloads.

    I find greek style works really nice with shorter slings

    im always impressed by the relative ease and accuracy at which you do this. ill get there some day. how often do you practice? i use an egyptian style sling. which do you prefer?

      The ideal for me is 300+ shots per day (depending on the rpm of course). but since August my practice slowly dropped and in the last month I haven't slung at all, that's because I'm working on different projects so there is not enough time. Egyptian slings are cool but I prefer even lighter slings like the LP-4 or hemp split pouches.

    I like this style, very accurate up to 60 , 70 meters
    allows a aiming close to the gap shooting that I use in instinctive archery.
    thanks

    With rock slinging, does accuracy come with time and practice?

    • @Acroballistics
      @Acroballistics  Год назад +2

      time, practice, focus, challenge. like any other skill

    Great to see, but accuracy was very inconsistent.

    • @Acroballistics
      @Acroballistics  2 года назад +3

      that's clearly up to the slinger. What would satisfy your consistency needs?
