The lanyard on any slingshot is an essential piece of safety equipment.
When drawing a slingshot, the same amount of energy stored in the bands to propel the ammo towards the target, is also stored in the slingshot with the energy directed toward your face.
We don’t say this to scare you.
We say this to remind you to always use the supplied Wrist Lanyard. No matter how strong you are, if you were to drop the slingshot during full draw or it were to slip from your hand, the slingshot would be headed back toward your face. Not good.
Safety first!
