Slo-mo slinging Comanche style

This is the Comanche variant of the Figure-8 style. The stance is more facing towards the target and the windup spin is as much front to back as it is right to left.
Because of the diagonal sweep of the pouch during the throw, you can control the elevation of your shot by changing the angle of your body to the target. Facing more towards the target, you thorw low. Facing more away from the target, you throw high.

Thanks for the lesson!!! I was also wondering about the history of this technique, and if it was used by the Comanche.

so did the comanches use the sling as a hunting weapon in historic times or in prehistoric times?
