Wrist Rocket Height

Stand on a ladder when you shoot? New monofilament (more slippery than worn)? New rubbers? Skip the bottom eye on the pole and feed direct from the reel? Be sure you have a very solid wrist/arm on the holding arm. If your hand/arm gives while shooting, some of the energy will be used in that wasted hand movement. I saw a "wrist rifle" that a guy built. Normal WR attached to a wooden "stock" with bazooka-like hand holds. The pouch of the slingshot was held by a steel rod in the "cocked" position. Just like rubber band machine guns that kids might build. Craig 'Lumpy' Lemke www.n0eq.com If legal use a potato gun.... Dave WD9BDZ |
