an 80 cm archery target is hard to hit with a bow at 60 m but with a sling at 175 respect 👍 i really appreciate your content Greetings from the Schlingel team
A Carthaginian fleet is heading to Magna Graecia to face Syracuse, Slingers from Iberia and the Balearic Islands go with them, I think it's time to recruit you as a mercenary...
What a shot. Amazing man. So glad I got to see you sling in person as well. If there was any possible doubt about your abilities before, I know for a fact now you're a beast :D
CONGRATULATIONS! at that distance the arrow has reached beyond its maximum effective range. im curious how lethal a 180m sling projectile is? maybe testing at 100meters is a good start with ballistic gel
Good stuff. Many people only show the slinger and not the impact. I suggest you go high above some lake. When the rock hits the water it is pretty clear what happens. Anyway thx!
This is how I imagine the Balearic slingers being used. The two armies are almost close enough to charge, but not close enough for pilum. This is where the slingers disrupt formations, put enemy soldiers on the ground for following soldiers to step around, cause nasty wounds. And they keep it up for 1500 yards!
I Just watched a documentation about Stone age weapons. They sayed "trained shooters could do 200 meters and Hit" Me: No way thats possible. I Check RUclips slingshot videos. And Here i am. Totaly baffled. Awesome Shot
distance will depend on what you consider consistent. In modern balearic competitions they use 1.2 x 1.2 meter target at 13 and 20 meters and under competition conditions there are a lot of misses.
I was target slinging up to 40m for 10 years. then I found this place and after a while I got hits at 100m then I believed I could get a hit at 150m which I did after 2-4 sessions at 150m. The 175m hit was more difficult, it took 15 training days to get a hit. I was using very inconsistent ammo so it was part luck part skill (15days in a month, this was the first time training for target slinging at that distance, in the past 10 years I might have had a couple of days of target slinging at similar distances). If you are just starting but learn fast and you are fit you could do it in 3 months. Ideally you would have a good sling, plenty consistent ammo and someone to train with at those distances
Great how in theory these could have anahilated armies using early guns since even in mass firing early modern firearms couldn't manage many, if any hits outside 120 meters unless very well trained While slings can be more accurate at times will accuracy by volume as well
every time I went there I had with me a bag of stones (70-150 stones of different sizes) so the days I got a hit it was with roughly 100 shots, other days I get close but no hit.
Topic interests me. But Why would I (or anyone?) waste 38 seconds of my life listening to Kamala Harris on an unrelated subject, let alone 4 minutes on a walking staff?
Awesome shot man, that's some ancient Roman auxiliary slinger level of accuracy right there
Nah dude full Balearic mercenary level
Now that's what I call the biggest slinging flex: hitting an archery target at two and a half times the distance archers usually shoot at!
Ur comparing modern Olympic archers

That is just awesome

Holy moly! That was amazing, even better than I expected!
Absolute incredible shot ... huge respect ! ❤
Awesome work dude !!! You killed it !!!!
Your follow through is way more natural now good on you!
That's amazing, I experimented with slinging here in US but when I visit Europe it would be cool to see some real slinging clubs and such talent
In the Guiness Book
nice shot

Inspirational. I need MUCH more practice.
Whooooosh! Cracking shot! Bravo! 🏴
Bonjour de France
Fan de tir à la fronde,
Fantastique tir.
Incroyable.
Merci pour vos vidéos.

Absolute insanity 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Incredible shot man!
That's the Afghan sidearm technique I do believe? An incredible shot 🧡

That is beautiful
Very cool!

Fantastic man! 👍
Wow your just the coolest!
Insane!!
Nice shooting. Do you know the weight of the stone?
Around 60grams judging by the size
Εισαι Μεγαλος!
Epic!!
impressive

This is why Romans don't always train Archers despite having bows & arrows already in their knowledge.
Primarily always against other ranged enemies.
How much kinetic energy do you think it had at impact?
Incredible! At what distance could you consistently strike this sized target?

Incredible. How long does it take to get that good?

@@Acroballistics thank you for this detailed answer 👍👍
Great shot. At what range could you hit the target three times consecutively?
Great how in theory these could have anahilated armies using early guns since even in mass firing early modern firearms couldn't manage many, if any hits outside 120 meters unless very well trained
While slings can be more accurate at times will accuracy by volume as well
How fast is the ammo flying to target? Very fascinating!
I don't know. I think it would be in the 55-65m/s region
Камень какой массы вы использовали для этого выстрела?
the riverstones I prefer for that range with that sling are 60-80 grams
@@Acroballistics благодарю.
Wheres my happy dance??
Approximately... how many shots do you need to hit this size target at 100m?
every time I went there I had with me a bag of stones (70-150 stones of different sizes) so the days I got a hit it was with roughly 100 shots, other days I get close but no hit.
Really.

Just a little bit further and you could take out Putin LOL 😀
