Is there anyone or any slingshot club in chiangmai? i have been playing slingshot since i was a Child . i would like to find some people who have the same interest .

This is the slingshot i am using .

that is a proper one, where can i buy one? you do not need a club, just fire a few at the house next door, they fire back and the one left standing wins the prize.

No idea, but I would go ask at the archery club place.. As it seems aligned with their kind of interest.

There used to be an annual slingshot competition held in town every year. Very popular with the Thais, both young and old. Most of them use the cheap wooden ones we see in every souvenir shop. I remember watching some of the wait-staff at a restaurant practicing out back several years ago. Pretty impressive shooting too!

Lots of village people playing slingshot everyday and very good at it.

The reason you so rarely see squirrels

The reason you don't see so many squirrels is that they were all busy in our house making unauthorised modifications to the network cables....

You can chase them out easily just by sprinkling ordinary moth balls (or flakes) around the area they infest. Rodents of all kinds dislike the smell and move out.

Don't dis the handcrafted slingshots here.

Some of them are quite good, especially the ones made by the hilltribes.

As a kid growing up in semi-rural New York State we made slingshots out of dogwood. It is extremely hard wood that grows usually in three branches out of a main branch that we used as a handle. Cut green, the middle branch was sawn off and the two others were tied together with wire to form a "U" shape. Dried in an oven at low heat for a few hours and it was finished. Surgical tubing or Wham-O bands made it a lethal weapon against the little furry critters of the woodlands, or for some local mischief.

The USA in the 1950s and '60s was a great place to grow up. I really feel sorry for the kids there now.

It's OK though, if they live in Iowa they can get a Glock.

Are you actually admitting to us that you used to kill small animals just for 'fun?'

That this was some sort of 'play' for you, and that you weren't even eating what you killed?

While I see nothing untoward about hunting game animals so long as the meat isn't wasted,

just killing living creatures simply because you wanted to play with your toys is hardly something to be proud of.

I hope the kids who are growing up in your area today are taught some better values.
