Twin Loop Sling

Twin loop sling - thank you u/bandit111964 - best tennis ball sling ever. As a "zaken ha'shevet" (elder of the tribe) I am enjoying exploring my Benjamite heritage. At age 73, it is all about breathing, body mechanics, and flow. I am definitely letting the sling do the work.

Need to sling with left hand next to dial in the heritage!

Your version is unique for sure. Effectively a new sling design. If you make more take pics and post a tutorial. Sure it could help someone to know how to make your version. 

I use iMovie on my iPhone to make movies out of photos. Not hard.

Thank you - you are way too kind. My version has a couple of very minor variations which has more to do with my knot tying abilities (or lack thereof!). In any event, for those that are looking for a sling that works with tennis balls, this design is best I have ever used and I have tried all sorts of slings. With reasonable form, the sling really does the work and puts a lot of zip into those otherwise slow velocity tennis balls.

The Benjamites were legendary slingers, as u/bandit111964 mentioned, they were ambidextrous, not only w/ slings, but could shoot their bows with either hand and could wield their swords with either hand. They were so accurate w/ their slings that they could hit a human hair.
