My brother found this old slingshot while cleaning out an old barn.
Figured it belonged to our Dad or one of his brothers.
Guessing maybe 75 years old or more?
If only it could talk!

Somewhere in a box of photos and such I have one made out of a coat hanger. It was sent home with my report card and a note from my teacher. Musta been around the 5th grade or so. My Mom still talks about it.

I had a few. Dad made them with popped bicycle inner tubes.

There are a few old timers here in GA that shoot running rabbits with them. Probably find videos on you tube.
