What's the longest you've spent throwing a throw bag?

[billpierce]

Just spent 45 mins today. Still didn't hit my target and had to settle for some dodgy dead branch and round the trunk, then shimmied up it like I was going to collect coconuts. And now my nuts are aching.
 
Anyway, do catapults make this any easier or is that just a different way to be frustrated?

In my limited experience catapults make getting a good anchor easier, but the temptation is to go for an amazing anchor because you have a catapult so can end up in the same position or belting your throw bag through several trees.

Mattyf sorted me out with a APTA which on the few jobs I have used it for has been excellent.

The longest I ever spent hand throwing is one appalling throw, so 5 seconds.
Then I got my phone out and ordered a Big Shot.

Had a go with a large slingshot on a golf course recently.

And you're still only 20ft off the ground

I spent ages i mean aaaaages practising with a 10oz throw weight,couldnt hit a barn door and gave up.

Recently i used a 14oz and im doin much better with my shots,gettin 30 footers within a couple of shots.

Got it caught up in lime today though...

Perhaps going up weights could help others who struggle to throw

I'm crap with a throw line. It winds me up when people say 'you need more practise'. 23 years of practice is long enough to tell me I'll never be good at it! [emoji38]

It's certainly more acceptable than touching others in the park...

Apparently.

...I think you need to use a better class of park K

( Definately use 160z bags , they fall better - Big Shots are fab - in the right hands )

we built an air powered cannon to get round this it works fab the only issues with it are if theres dead branches it does knock them off
