I love the Pan Sling. I was waiting by the mail box for it to arrive! I had been doing my stick drills in the days leading up to it. Once it arrived, I immediately began slinging with a tennis ball. Within an hour I had a fluid motion and slinging decently. Within a few days I was able to hit within a foot of my target.
The hurting aspect comes from forgetting it’s a throwing motion and I threw the equivalent of a complete baseball game. It’s lots of fun, and I can’t wait to sling some actual stones. But the sling is incredible. Quality is great, and I love the color of the Deep. Can’t wait to snag another sling soon, and one for my 4 year old as well. Who has been able to sling with the 27 inch just fine!
