slingshot recommendations

[bungee]

Can anyone give me some recommendations please?

I want something powerful enough to hunt with should i need to, but not break the bank.
There are quite a few on amazon but they all look like toys- but if you have any experience with these and they are ok let me know.

A few different price ranges would help; something I can afford now - maybe up to £20/30 (although cheaper is fine if you think its a reasonable slingshot)

And something I can aspire to should I suddenly win the lottery...

Not bothered about sling bows, unless that's just a feature of it anyway.

Thanks!

Gamekeeper John makes some good kit, very good. Worth a look. Once you have used it you will realise how cheaply you can make your own though, which is what I do.

Many folks like the Barnett Black Widow with the arm brace. Never could get on with that. However, they do the 'Strike9' which is less than a tenner. And it does the job. Spare bands are easily acquired etc.

The thing is, it is about practice. Does not matter how much it costs, it is how you use it.

The only one i know about would be the black widow, as a couple of friends had them when we were in our teens which was a long time back.

As I said, it is about practice. whatever you use.

Suffolk slingshots on ebay do a nice wooden one, but practice is the key.

Save your money and find yourself a nice fork.
You'll appreciate a lot more,and like that all said,practice,practice,practice.
I personally use chain linked elastic bands,any power combination you like and cheap as chips.
I've had chain linked fire a BB as powerful as double theraband.

ive got a black widow, bought it from skeggy about 5 years ago with the intention of something to play with.
unless you have little girly wrists (In my opinion) then it will be uncomfortable to use and the arm rest will not fit across the way it is intended and you will have to twist the wrist to fit.

I just bought 2 sets of barnet slings for £7 then noticed the strike 9 for £8 delivered from the uk, cant be bad at all, ive got 2 black widow style cats, both bootsale finds one better than the other, so me and the boys can have a play, i might have to get a stike 9 so we can all play
