Doesn't even approach humane if you ask me. More likely to maim something than kill it, just doesn't seem morally or ethically proper to me.

It's certainly a possibility. There are 'draw-backs' to it of course. Just like a bow, the strength of those rubber bands determine how 'deadly' the thing is. If given a choice, it definitely would not be my first choice. But, that's not what this sort of thingy is about. It's about 'have to' instances rather than 'want to' instances, big difference there. As for humane, ethical or moral issues, it just depends on the situation in which it would be used. Go buy a 'tag' and go deer hunting with it? I really doubt if that would be very practical. But if it's a case of eating or not eating, and using a slingshot or throwing rocks, then I think those humane/ethical/moral thingys are going to take a little 'customizing', you know? What's 'acceptable' in the normal every-day world doesn't count much in 'drastic' circumstances...

i will be changing the tubing on my sling shot for stronger ones(more pull)...
this would great for a survival situation or shtf weapon, you can make arrows as needed.

i can't tell you how many deer i have bagged with only 25-35 pound straight and recurve bows. Women do it all the time with lower pound draw weights if they are not strong enough to draw 45-55 pounders.

accuracy is the key. did i mention accuracy!

allowing the prey to drain it's blood allows for the best game meat.

if nothing else it will make a great zombie killer

There was a post a few days ago where the guy makes a 'compound' style slingshot. This makes for more power.

Doesn't look like a good Idea.Or worth the fines and jail time if you get caught! Laughing to hard to watch the video.

In survival mode, breaking the law will be low on your list of worries.

in the mean time i'll be practicing and getting good with it until i need it to survive.

What's a good quality sling shot on the market?

I've always had cheap ones. What's a good professional one.

Anyone recommend a good one?

I mostly want one for target and pest control.
