the best to you Duncan...I have a great sling shot design I've been working on these past few decades, let me know if you are hunting red deer and i'll send it along to you...you must surely have some old airgun springs in a drawer some where...zing of the ages...
Cheers for that Zing, and I bloody wish I was only 49!
Just completed day two of my training and also did my assessment (& passed flyingly) I shall now cross train as a sea angling coach as well. Loads of scope up here and some really good schools programmes on the go. So loads to do!
I also have a slingshot lying in my man cave half finished, which will be getting completed and armed with double Gold Thera Band.....
And the roe deer will be getting some attention soon.

Duncan, of the four working days 'til I retire...
