new to the channel, im sure you have said this before. Where could i purchase the bands and those steel balls you normally shot. do you use the same website or store everytime?
@JoergSprave No offense, but you're amazing at creating slingshots, and you could EASILY patent your designs and turn your hobby into a career. That's what I would do at least. Think about it: you could be a famous inventor, get paid lots of money, start your own business/ company, and best of all: Get paid lots of money to do what you are passionate about! I don't see what's stopping you man, if I were you, I'd start right away. But I guess you'd rather just build these in your backyard....
@Planatification Well, I already started my own business, 23 years ago, after graduating from university. I still run that company and I have many shares in it. It is a great job which I like. I do make good money. Why should I want to go through the tough years of starting a new business when I am perfectly happy with the job I already have? What I need is a fun hobby, not another career.
Actually really freakin cool! This would make a nice survival tool, less bulky than a full bow, more portable. You guys should patent and sell these =3
I beleive you could sell 1000's maybe 10's X 1000's of that product. Why dont you? as I mentioned in an earlier comment with a wrist brace and another pair of band or even 2 x pair of bands that would make a very small yet very powerful hunting weapon for medium size game. you was achieving 24 ft lbs here - I know if you wanted to you could double that if not more (but would need wrist brace cos not every1 as strong as you!
A further point not sure what you do for a job but you must be very well payed as I am sure you could make a career and earn some good money selling your slingshots. PS what job do you do - is it something to do with joinery/woodwork/engineering and do they allow you to use their tools to make your slingshots ? because the craftmanship on your products is second to none! (just being nosey tell me to eff off if you want!)
That is an amazing concept design - please don't take what I am saying as criticism as I admire your ctaftmanship so much. But not every1 has as big chest and shoulders as you surely this would be bore accurate with a wrist brace - I am sure you could even add another pair of rubber bands for extra power if you did.
i have seen kills on hogs with sling bows within 20 meters, but with the heavy black spear gun or silver (can't remember what for?) bands jorge has used before i would expect much more power. i am still not sure if it would get out to 100 yds but most modern bows wont do that either. the simple fact that it is much much quieter and more economical than a gun makes it a very worthy weapon none the less. besides if you cant stalk within 20 yds range then you shouldn't be in the woods to begin with
This looks like an awesome new sling bow design, however the only problem can see with it, is taking the second primary issue of hand slaps, the fixed version would be extremely loud thus not all that effective for actually hunting. Have you looked at a way to quieten the contact yet?
I lost the use of my right arm in a motorbike accident and i used to target shoot with bow and slingshot. I will be very happy to return to do it ! :)
Thank you and sorry if you already answered this question, if not a demonstration video will be awesome (think all the disabled people old and young you can make happy !)
@baldes i know you where asking him but i figured id give you some info any way. here while back i saw a hunting show and it was a special hunt for a man who had lost his arm in afghanistan, they either made or purchased a shoulder strap system in which he was able to mount a quick release system to his collarbone area, all he had to do was flex to press the quick release. i would imagaine you could find it somewhere on the internet. good luck!
Have you looked into prosthetics? There are one handed shooters out there, and from what I recall, they have a prosthetic limb to hold the bow, and draw with their good arm.
In america, many states allow crossbow hunting for disabled archers, so that might also be an option.
@eial777 Schlaufe in die Sehne, Gummi durchziehen und mit einem Faden abbinden. Dazu unbedingt den Würgeknoten verwenden, alles andere hält nicht. Anleitungen gibt's bei yt unter "constrictor knot".
you know how a compund bow uses pulleys and cables. i wonder if u could make a sling bow with a pulley system, sort of a "compund slingshot". let me know what u think :)
love it sir, would it make any sense to you to extend your lower limb slightly on this sling bow? where the grip would have essentially the flight rest length on both sides and the match of the upper limb on both sides. this could greatly increase the available power. i only wonder if this concept could also work with the 20mm ammunition that you commonly use as well with some minor modifications. i only bring up these ideas as i am accustomed to shooting English long bow...
Joerg the design needs improvement because it still hits your hand. The rubber slides on a side and still hirsute the hand it looks quite painful in the slow-motion. Still I love you Channel.
This guy is Fuckin Crazy , but in a good way , you deserve millions of views. I don't know shit about this , but all I know is that your a fuckin pro.
The Mad Man of sling shots does it again!!! Cant wait for the sights!!! Also u must have counter sunk some screws some where to hold the arrow rest???
awesome thing. Joerg you are genius :) Would you tell me what do you call them shoot aids for a hand. To grip the rubberband making sure it won't slip out ur hand. Like u used in ur other video for a powerful slingshot. Can them be bought somewhere? Tnx in advance.
P.S. R u selling any of ur stuff by the way? :) I'd buy some of ur mighty creations.
@JoergSprave We won't be seeing a how to video about this one by any chance are we ? only found your channel as of today & i'm allready planning on making that first sling bow.. but i'd love to get a bit moreinfo on this design to be honnest.. thx in advance :)
@thomasnbishop HEY! I made beaded necklaces and medallions for rappers in 1989-96 that did not wear gold, and the came to me and a few other guys that did this because we put our Heart,Soul and Love into our custom product. But any of us can go by a Diablo slingshot from Walmart or Chinese copy off Ebay, but a lot of us would love to have a limited addition Sprave sling(with Signature),i probably wouldnt want 1 if he no longer did it himself & he sold 1mil. in Walmart, but to us He's a Superstar
@HomeDistiller I also told him he should start a product line, just like Cadbury Chocolate's do during Easter, he can make a limited amount of his creation and watch all of them SELL LIKE CRAZY!!.
@gorelik75 It can be found in any hand-bow store. It is normally designed for compound-bows(3 stringed catroll bows) and it is a little bit different then his. It is usually a little rope with some kind of grapple atached
@JoergSprave Ich glaube, wer im Internet seine Eigenbau-Waffen vorführt, steht auf der Einbrecherliste nicht sooo weit oben ;-) Ps: Tolle Videos! Die Lackaffen von Co2Air wußten das einfach nicht zu schätzen!
Very very nice my friend. Have you looked at wildernessoutfitters slingbow modifications? Essentially it is a whisker biscuit mounted with two zip ties into the middle of a wrist rocket. It looks very effective, though I don't think it nearly generates 32 joules, though he states he can kill a deer with it.
Links dont work, but search "Sling bow final modification how to" Take a look though, tell me what you think. I'm a bit strapped for cash and this looks nice
@phatboi716 Of course I know Dave's work, I have much respect for him. I tried similar designs. But the whisker biscuit is hit every time you shoot, with the pouch actually going through the whiskers, damaging them. Also there is much dead play of the rubber bands. The draw length of a slingbow is short (limited by the arrow length, 30 inches), and if the dead play is 8 inches, that leaves 22 inches of effective draw... not much. My design eliminates both issues.
I already have a wrist rocket so I'm probably just going to modify that, but looking at your slingshot crossbow video I think that will be my first project, eventually working up to a design much like the "African goddess". It's very nice. Is there any way I can remove some of that dead play on the wrist rocket? He has another video putting on a bow string where the pocket was for a release, would this do less damage to the whisker biscuit?
@phatboi716 The string allows you to use a release and does a little less damage to the whiskers. To remove the dead play, you can forwards extend the fork arms - welding gear and skills are needed.
That will be something I look into then. Does your design you showed in the "Slingbow with collapsible arrows" video remove damage to the whisker biscuit? Welding shouldn't be a problem, I know some skilled workers. With the string, what would be my best method of replacing the pouch with the string? I haven't bought these parts yet, I only have a bare wrist rocket. I will be buying the rubber slings w/ pouch, a whisker biscuit, and some arrows on Friday if things go my way.
@phatboi716 I recommend joining the slingshotforum, lots of great advise there. It is free, and I am a mod on that forum. Comments don't allow links and images, hard to assist you from here.
Very nice, I know that lot's of hard work went in to your design congrats and you should feel proud of your accomplishment . now let's take it hunting that is the real test or bow fishing.
hi joerg i haved watched loads of your vids and wants to make a descent catapult (all my other attemps are crap ) but it is to expensive how could i make a good powerful one
This one is the perfect survival bow, easy to transport, ready to go with no mounting time... it's simply awesome. I have not enought manual ability to make one, but it''s a dream. Nice.. NICE work with this. (Can I say "work" for an hobby?)
@ROBERTLUCIAn Am I really? I think a 40 lbs recurve bow is very comparable in arrow speed. There are heavier bows than 40 lbs, but I can use stronger rubber too.
Of course compound bows are faster. But can you make a compound bow at home, from wood, with basic tools? Material costs under 10 dollars, BTW.
@JoergSprave Your slingshot's are great, but the one thing is... I can make a wooden recurve bow with: a log, saw, knife, string, water + fire. And a stick for the bendings(not sure how it's called in english)
It would probably shoot a little faster then your's, and also probably a little more steady because it will be longer.
@ROBERTLUCIAn Compound bow's suck. They take to long to get a precise shot. You will need to watch everything or your shot will fail bigtime.
@ROBERTLUCIAn My bad, I didn't specify. Yes I was comparing your sling bow to a compound bow. I own a bow and a Chrony chronograph. However for having it built out of ruber and wood and only 1.2 lbs your bow is outstanding! How about mounting a sight on it to do some shooting at 20-30 yards?
dont the rubber hitting your hand hurt????

Very very nice my friend. Have you looked at wildernessoutfitters slingbow modifications? Essentially it is a whisker biscuit mounted with two zip ties into the middle of a wrist rocket. It looks very effective, though I don't think it nearly generates 32 joules, though he states he can kill a deer with it.
Links dont work, but search "Sling bow final modification how to" Take a look though, tell me what you think. I'm a bit strapped for cash and this looks nice

@phatboi716 Of course I know Dave's work, I have much respect for him. I tried similar designs. But the whisker biscuit is hit every time you shoot, with the pouch actually going through the whiskers, damaging them. Also there is much dead play of the rubber bands. The draw length of a slingbow is short (limited by the arrow length, 30 inches), and if the dead play is 8 inches, that leaves 22 inches of effective draw... not much. My design eliminates both issues.

@JoergSprave
I already have a wrist rocket so I'm probably just going to modify that, but looking at your slingshot crossbow video I think that will be my first project, eventually working up to a design much like the "African goddess". It's very nice. Is there any way I can remove some of that dead play on the wrist rocket? He has another video putting on a bow string where the pocket was for a release, would this do less damage to the whisker biscuit?
phatboi716 1 year ago
@phatboi716 The string allows you to use a release and does a little less damage to the whiskers. To remove the dead play, you can forwards extend the fork arms - welding gear and skills are needed.

@JoergSprave
That will be something I look into then. Does your design you showed in the "Slingbow with collapsible arrows" video remove damage to the whisker biscuit? Welding shouldn't be a problem, I know some skilled workers. With the string, what would be my best method of replacing the pouch with the string? I haven't bought these parts yet, I only have a bare wrist rocket. I will be buying the rubber slings w/ pouch, a whisker biscuit, and some arrows on Friday if things go my way.

@phatboi716 I recommend joining the slingshotforum, lots of great advise there. It is free, and I am a mod on that forum. Comments don't allow links and images, hard to assist you from here.

Looks very nice. Is there anyway to quiet the slap of rubber on wood? That would be my only concern hunting.

@martkt10 Never. This is my hobby. I am not going to spoil it with legal issues, customer complaints and taxes. Got enough of that in my job already.
But feel free to make your own one!

Nice concept but you are way behind a bow launched arrow. Great job though!
ROBERTLUCIAn 1 year ago
@ROBERTLUCIAn Am I really? I think a 40 lbs recurve bow is very comparable in arrow speed. There are heavier bows than 40 lbs, but I can use stronger rubber too.
Of course compound bows are faster. But can you make a compound bow at home, from wood, with basic tools? Material costs under 10 dollars, BTW.
JoergSprave 1 year ago 21
@JoergSprave Your slingshot's are great, but the one thing is... I can make a wooden recurve bow with: a log, saw, knife, string, water + fire. And a stick for the bendings(not sure how it's called in english)
It would probably shoot a little faster then your's, and also probably a little more steady because it will be longer.
@ROBERTLUCIAn Compound bow's suck. They take to long to get a precise shot. You will need to watch everything or your shot will fail bigtime.

@ROBERTLUCIAn My bad, I didn't specify. Yes I was comparing your sling bow to a compound bow. I own a bow and a Chrony chronograph. However for having it built out of ruber and wood and only 1.2 lbs your bow is outstanding! How about mounting a sight on it to do some shooting at 20-30 yards?
