youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) ye bud it seems solid and is made of multiplex which many says is the best stuff. the bands are spot on aswell. only thing is it is a little uncomfortable but that is probably to do with the way im holding it. waiting on some ball bearings then i can get to grips with it and adjust how i handle it seems really powerful aswell with the few shots i have taken splitting pebbles into loads of pieces Edited April 5, 2013 by youcanthide...BANG 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sheffield Catapults 71 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 If you want comfort check out our Hammer Hunter Elite, it's a bit more money but it makes shooting heavier bands much more comfortable Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) will do mate. just managed to tw*t my hand with a pebble. ah well at least i now not to do it again. its a whole different feeling shooting flat bands compared to tubes. the power makes up for it though. watch out pigeons lol Edited April 5, 2013 by youcanthide...BANG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sheffield Catapults 71 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Using objects that aren't round (like pebbles) are likely not to shoot straight at high powers like with Theraband Gold on your catapult, so be careful! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 ive got some ball bearings on order, should be here tomorrow just couldn't wait to have a few shots with it but only had pebbles to hand. should have waited lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sheffield Catapults 71 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Good man, pebbles have a tendency to come off your bands which often causes them to rip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 cant wait to get practising tomorrow. made a catch box so im not wasting any ammo because £8 for 100 ball bearings is too much to be throwing away, providing i can hit in the box . then after that im gonna start making some 12mm lead balls Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sheffield Catapults 71 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 £8 for 100 steel 9.5mm's is a lot mate! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
