The day began Jan. 22 season friendly tournament on a roll (not valid for the rankin) in a nearby town called "Quijorna" taking advantage of their celebrations, organized a run where the partners enjoyed a great day of shooting and good food, the coin toss winner was Javier Diez has greatly improved his shooting technique, I do not have pictures of the tournament, I could not attend these tournaments are held on holidays and me is when I work.
Javier told me that when my local computer bag the slingshot were left stunned, had to make two categories.
Manuel and Javier are still working on the design, I make these pictures.

greetings to all

Like them all, but the purple one is the best looking. Hope they all shoot well this season.

They look very interesting, I really like the one on the far right. Is he planning on selling them?

I do not know what you mean, I understand the sense given to the translator to the question, sorry.

Uh, when you point with the sight at the target does the ball hit where the sight was pointed?

not exactly, depends on the position.
the object vertically to the left of the spotlight, in position 45 º to the right target front sight, I have not practiced a lot with this design, I'm making me one to practice at the point of gangsta style looks good for nothing.
I hope to have successful mate

Sights are made to be calbrated by the shooter. No sights are inaccurate, consistency of the shooter's form is the point.

Share their thoughts, practice and perseverance are the shooter.

Hola Newconvert

Siento no haber podido contestarte antes .

Sobre la 1 pregunta , el agarre de martillo no es mi estilo , pero a todos mis amigos les encanta este agarre , mis amigos solo practican tiro de precision y siempre con la misma tecnica , son muy cerrados a los cambios, en mi caso me gusta practicar y dominar todos los estilos .

el especialista del hierro y diseñador es Manuel Paredes , le he comentado los deseos de alguno de ustedes pero me comenta que no tiene tiempo ,.......
He estado trabajando con Javier en este diseño todo en madera , Javier tiene mas tiempo y no para de hacerlos y probar ideas , he conseguido que abra su canal en you tube , el me comenta que si estaria dispuesto a intercambiar o a vender , tengo que conseguir que ingrese en el foro .
sobre lo que me comentas de la vision y interferencias de las gomas no hay problemas , siempre que lo tengas bien equilibrado
esta claro que es un modelo para hacer tiro al blanco , pero al mio no le pondre punto de mira.
si tienes alguna duda estare encantado en atenderte .

Un abrazo .........Alf
