Slinging From the Bow


Slinging on a lake in Pokhra Nepal would be good enough. The mountains, the lakes, the possibility that Everest might actually be visible if the clouds go away. But slinging from the bow of paddle boat is even better. My target? "Chuck a rock without falling in". And this time I'm glad to say I hit my target dead on leaving me high and dry which in this case is a good thing. In other water related slinging news. Yesterday I was slinging at the Railey River and my sling left my hand with the rock and landed in the middle of the heaviest flow. After chasing it, breaking my flip flop and watching it rush away as well, I gave up. So besides my two back up slings that I haven't used in three months...both of which are missing parts...today slingmoore is slingless.
