This is awesome I love hunting pizza trays, Coke cans are a little harder, I'm not that great of a shot but I think the pocket shot will make it easier to get them.
I haven't seen anyone try to reverse their grip so it would be more like a C grip. What happens then? I feel like it would be more accurate and less on an awkward twist for your wrist
Luke Greer Just Depends on your shooting style. Check out Game Keeper Johns video on The Pocket Shot. He shoots like what your talking about. He;s probably the best shooter out there. Be careful not to shoot your finger off if you decide to shoot that way.
How long on average will a pouch last before I need to replace it? Surely everyones' use is diferent but just a ballpark figure if possible please. I'm in the UK so I wanna be way ahead of when I might need a new pouch due to wear. Postage takes ages as you likely know.
How do I adjust for plastic BBs for the same short range? I have metal shot for the backyard (no neighbors), but I also have a neighbor across the street and I'm just trying to deter squirrels and starlings from the bird feeder.
Plastic curves because it is too light. Especially when the wind blows. Steel is the only way to be accurate unless you are close to your target. (maybe 10-15 ft.)
+Lenley Melvin All the time buddy. We are also on Amazon.ca if that is easier. Any accessories though need to be purchased through our website like extra pouches or whiskers, etc.
someone just shared this on my facebook..I ordered it and cannot wait to get it !I dare my daughter cat to claw my couch(Just kidding )have you tested this on melons or pumpkins or has anyone accidentally(or on purpose?hehehehe) been shot by one of these?
i've noticed an anomaly while target practicing ... MOST OF THE TIME THERE'S A WICKED CURVE TO MY SHOT SO I HAVE TO AIM LEFT OF THE TARGET ... and sometimes it goes straight and again i mis the target ... wish i new what i'm doing wrong ...
Watch our other videos on how to shoot the Pocket Shot for Newbies. Most likely you are not pulling the Pouch STRAIGHT back. Video yourself from the side and watch it. You can really see what you are doing wrong when it is on video.
never mind a curve ball in baseball pitching ... have you ever seen a CORKSCREW PITCH ??? in this video( " MLB Best Curveballs " ) you'll see a corkscrew at 0:27 - 0:29 ... were you ever a golf caddy ??? i was one for like about 3 hours and the things that i've seen a golf ball do could not be captured on tape you have to see them personally ...
+The Pocket Shot ...any update on the higher velocity pouches? Just ordered one and am very impressed. Now I just need the whiskerbiscuit and more pouches.
I only use my pocket shot for shooting in the back yard with a unique ammo catch system please never shoot at birds or other small animals ..... ( $500 fine plus 1 year probation ) in the state of Tennessee.
😂😂here in Minnesota the city I live in will pay you for bringing in squirrels and wood Peckers and also bunnies...as long as you hunt within the season..completely legal here
I'm in Soddy Daisy just 10 miles north of Chattanooga. I would probably hide when u cut your grass. Those little steel balls must be like a machine gun coming off the mower blades
Buck Shot We're about 2 hours south of you. Someone mentioned that before about the ammo. You would THINK that would happen but actually, after a rain they get buried so deep in the ground they disappear. Thankfully, no ammo shrapnel being thrown by a lawnmower yet.
The Pocket Shot i shoot all the time in my backyard based on my theory the lawnmowers wind force generated doesn't have enough of a surface to pull the balls up starting the cycle
The wrist rocket is already compact enough and can be more accurate. Yes i did see the speed test performed but not convinced u measured the wrist rocket at full draw.
Why should I spend $25 when I can make the exact thing with balloons and a Gatorade cap for under 50 cents, shoots just as good as the pocket shot and has the same functions
Your balloon and a bottle cap is a toy, this is a serious slingshot that can shoot an arrow 140 FPS through a watermelon. We made your toy when we were kids, that is where the idea came from.
I bought a pocket shot and I can tell you there's a huge difference between the two your "home made" one is crappy quality (I had the same idea as you after I made one from a cap and balloon) but with the pocket shot you'll get much better quality and performance
making them with balloons suck they go fast and far but do very little damage and the balloons dont last long. plus the pocket shot is worth using and can be used for shooting starlings and red squirrels
Hey guys it's Kevin from Goss Knives and Cutlery meet you all today. Awesome product you have there and I'll be calling you soon.
Kevin Goss Hi there, hope you got our Email. Sounds good. Your stuff is awesome.
Cool product. Came here from Jorge's SlingshotChannel. I think I'll order one of these.
Great, the feedback from people who have actually purchased one has been tremendous. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
just ordered one can't wait to see how well it dose with squirrels
Does
Evil
i used to make a very similar thing with rubber bands, a balloon, and a soda bottle.
You guys should add a detachable handle to this beast of a slingshot, Cuz better grip and stuff...Over all great product

Nice shooting and thx for the vid.

What kind/size paintballs are best for the pocket shot?
We like to shoot the .5 Cal by Splatmaster and the .4 cal by Project-Z.

it comes with an extra pouch
Is there a bigger one ,how serious can you get with one of these maybe hunting,self defense
Funny, I use to make those in the 70s with a chapstick tube and balloon.
what about doing a pouch of more draw to do butterfly style? that would be a lot of more speed, like 500 fps+
Not really, the physics does not really work like that.
Oh, and will you do other pouch to be faster than a butterfly slingshot?

Roger that, fire at will! :D
do you ship to Saudi Arabia ؟؟
when I pull mine hard enough the ring starts to really hurt my hand...any solution to this?
We are currently working on a rubber grip that slides over the outer ring. It will also help people with large hands.
+The Pocket Shot thanks for the reply but now that I use it more I think I'm used to it.. Actually just took out a bunny yesterday with it!!
Where can I buy one
thepocketshot.com or Walmart
What size of ammunition would you recommend to hunt and kill pest like pigeons and rats?
9mm
5/16 ball bearings will do the trick.
do you ship to Canada?

+The Pocket Shot thx!
i make one but it cant shot 350 f . that is not balloon. but what is it ?
I wish you would just put sight alignment & sight picture POV in front of the camera
+DocB Good Idea...maybe next time we could edit something in there.
what size ammo were you using?
1/4 inch ammo from what I remember.... but we also shoot 5/16 a lot.
which do you prefer?
1/4 inch shoots faster
Very cool

You definitely don't want to get shot by it.

You guys are just great I’d def burn one with y’all guys 💀😂
Ha! Far out.
I shot a marble with my pocket shot at a watermelon smashed it open 👍🏻👏🏻
You should give some serious consideration to making a higher velocity pouch to go with the wicker biscuit set!
+juzuvloke Yes sir, we've been working on it for about 6 months. We want to make sure it completely blows you away when it comes out. Stay tuned.
+The Pocket Shot ...any update on the higher velocity pouches? Just ordered one and am very impressed. Now I just need the whiskerbiscuit and more pouches.
OK but how do you AIM it...? What's the point of an aiming video that doesn't talk about aiming. OK you're good at it - how do we aim it?
Cans= 25 ft
Pizza Tin= 40 ft

They seem cool. More like a novelty than anything tho. I'd rather have a real slingshot
John Heckman Shoot one and Ill bet you'll change your mind. : )
I'm sure it has its place. Like in my pocket on a camping trip

i can shoot my "toy" a 290 fps so idk if I would classify it as that
Please post a video of that with a chronograph and send it to us.
