Big rowie 171 Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Hey folks. Wife got me a slingshot a black widow. Just wondering if it’s any good ? For a starter one ? Plus what size ball baring would you use for it ? just going to get targets or cans to shoot at see if I am any good at it (doubt it). if it’s not then what one would you recommend? Thanks for any feed back Quote Link to post Share on other sites
