My buddy and I did some horsetradin' and traded a handmade slingshot for some buffalo hide...this slingshot was made from Lake Erie driftwood and I can't wait to try it out !!!!...

Thats a neat indent in the leather what-ya-call-it. Does it improve accuracy?

What kind of wood has such perfect forks?

Got one hanging on my coat rack . Use it to put stray cats and dogs on the run . Egg sinkers will knock heck out of superman . Back in the day when inner tubes were made of good rubber we used those for the strips . Another thing I use it for is dusting trees with insecticide . Don't need a ladder that way . Just pull a piece of toilet tissue ,place a teaspoon or so powder in it . Pull up the corners and twist into a tail . Kind of like those snap pops they sell for kids on the 4th of July . Put it in tail toward the pouch . Aim and let them bag worms have it .

Got a couple laying around. Not good but scare the heck out of a few of the wayward dogs that get into the garden. Will have to work on that tip of Toadfrog's. Will save me a lot of trouble and another trip to the ER with my luck.
