Ep 59- Firing Medieval Slings

from Wilderness Wavelength · host George Shantz and Scott Sunderwald

Scott Sunderwald brings his medieval slings out for this episode as we record live from the riverside! Scott has been using slings to throw rocks for decades. We use a shepards sling, staff sling and a shotgun sling. We dig into the benefits of using these weapons in medieval times as well as practical application for survival situations today.
