Hey guys.. As you can see I have alot of free time on my hands. 
I'm a veteran and currently just going to school right now, so I got time aplenty. I do have a 3.98 tho, so my grades aren't affected by my slingshot addiction yet.
Today I took out my Dankung Black Eagle and Fish Hunter Ergo with Latex flats to just try and grab close video of impact. I was shooting poorly with the Dankung but I managed. Interestingly, I am getting better with the smaller Dankungs now, I even use the push-pull flip method and that does add power. I've shot it just holding it, and doing it that way and it adds some extra pop. And after you practice it, it becomes a pretty natural motion. I do it during commercials sometimes..
Break: One thing I think that helps, I do slingshot stuff during commercials if I am watching tv. Whether holding it, practice drawing or pouch loading. It's something productive for my shooting and I HATE commercials.
The Black Eagle is using that 2040 Cocktail setup I learned from Danny. That is my favorite tube setup to shoot, on any of my Dankungs. I've recently found It has much more pop on the smaller ones, so that's what I went with today.
My Fish Ergo is fitted with .30 Latex Field bands from Tex.. Great set, love em to pieces!
Once the weather gets good again (rain forecast for next week) I'll get out there some more.
