Greyman 25,818 Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Fancy a go at this but think a heavier band or tube set would really make them fly, a wrist rocket with blue dub dub maybe ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosun11 537 Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Interesting concept GM. Though, please excuse my naivity in this subject matter but if used on live quarry, wouldn't there be a good chance of wounding and fecking off with that dart stuck in it? As someone who, as a daft kid, used a re-curve bow on pheasants, duck and rabbits, i came to realise that light, pointy stuff dont work (and can get you in heaps of trouble!) Its the flat, heavy blow that knocks critters over. But as said, i have little expierence with a catty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,818 Posted March 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 I would only use it for targets as any kind of hunting would be well illegal but, if it were legal I’d be pretty confident of dropping a few squirrels with it though wether the effort of making the darts would be worth the rewards over ball bearings or nuts is doubtful, might just make one to play in the garden 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Wilkes 2,915 Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 small and large game would certainly bleed out if hit correctly with one of those. I personally wouldn’t use one , I’d rather use a full length arrow. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The orientals use a very similar set up to shoot fish, think it would be useful in a survival situation or as a bit of fun in the garden but can’t see it ever being my everyday carry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
