I was around 9 years old when my dad picked this up for me at a sporting goods store. Oh yeah, I used it on a street light once, got in trouble for that. Once a bunch of kids started a rock fight with my friends, and I pulled out the slingshot to even up the score. Sent one kid home crying to his mom. I held my breath about that one for a few days. Never used it on a person again after that. I stuck mostly to soda cans and the occasional bird or squirrel.

i LOVED my slingshot. my dad worked at a BALLBEARING plant, so i had a FREE UNLIMITED SUPPLY of ammo of every size you could think of. he would bring home BOXES of defects that were only off by thousands of an inch in some cases.
i spent so much time hunting with my pellet gun it isnt even funny. i would sit in my back yard and kill many, MANY crows as they descended on the blueberry bushes we had. eventually it became to easy so i switched to slowly sneaking up on them and taking them out point blank. its ALOT harder to sneak up on a bird then to shoot it from 25-50 yards.
i also spent alot of time trapping birds as well. seems every bird in the world wanted to get at those blueberrys in my back yard.
the only thing stupid i ever shot was myself on a bet. best 10$ i ever earned. pellet went straight through the side of my big toe.
