If a guy is silly enough to try it... Why not. Darwinism at its finest

Maybe we could get a hunting party togather, politciians, Judges, peta members, and any other treehuggers who want to go . Them kind like free trips, and turn them loose on Kodiac Island with sling shots and after a couple a weeks go back and see if those left will support gun laws!

I must have missed something. Who the F*** is trying to hunt Brown Bear with a slingshot. I've had trouble killing pigeons with a slingshot.

It would work if they're using the old SlingShotBow.

I know a few people I would like to send to film it.

Go to the start of the thread. It might inform you a little better on the crux of the conversation.

I voted yes; after all, it is all about shot placement.

Rem, yes, I read them all. Funniest thing is a lot of them, especially those who made the early responses, felt this was a real issue.

I'm with Josey Wales. Buzzards & worms gotta eat too. Brown bear slingshooters probably'll do.

 

[Sackett]

Yeah Alaska's got some dumb laws already like possession of beer is illegal,,,so why not let'em shoot a bear with a sling-shot??

Newton has something to say about this. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So, sending a 400gr ball bearing out of a sling shot at 3000 fps should put you in for the Darwin awards. Of course, anything less than that much energy would put you in for the Darwin awards anyway. I assume that Len is going to be selling the sling shots.

I reckon 400gr @ 3000fps would be an ideal way to stop a bear in its tracks - now where do I get the slingshot?
