SimpleShot Pro Tip: The Lanyard

The lanyard on any slingshot is an essential piece of safety equipment.

When drawing a slingshot, the same amount of energy stored in the bands to propel the ammo is also stored in the slingshot with the energy directed toward your face.

We don’t say this to scare you.

We say this to remind you to always wear the lanyard.No matter how strong you are, if you were to drop the slingshot during full draw, the slingshot would be headed back toward your face. Not good.

Safety first!
