Right next to the warmers was a 5 dollar slingshot that I ended up purchasing to have something to plink with (though slingshots definitely do more than "plink.") Anyway, I got back into the hobby and decided to invest in a higher quality sidearm. Allow me to save you the time we all use in do in reviewing literature and video product review online. The products by flippinout slingshots are amazing! They only have the scout on amazon but they have several beautiful artisan ones on their website. I wasn't as interested in in visual appeal so I went with their popular, durable and versatile scout.I'll do pros and cons...Pros:-comes with bands and pouch-The forks have indents for a variety of bands and attachment options.-Durability- It's made of fiberglass reinforced resin... don't worry about it ever breaking.-Comfort- The palm swell is perfect and, again refering to versatility, it is shaped to accomodate either of the three holding styles (hammer, pinch or thumb assisted.)-Fast shippingCons:-If you are planning on carrying it in your pocket, it is a bit larger than their other models but still much smaller and carryable than the bent fork models you find in big box stores.-I haven't really noticed it but some have said the edges are somewhat sharpish, which would affect you if you use the pinch grip. I honestly wouldn't be too concerned by this, though, because that's something that can be solved with some sandpapering. I would say go with a course grit and get it roughly how you like it before smoothing it back out with a fine grit.All in all, if you want cheap and durable, you can go to Walmart. If you want to add versatility, comfort and pride of ownership, get the scout. Oh, and on a side note- if you have a bigger budget and want more style/ visual appeal, go to flippinout's actual website (flippinoutslingshots.com) and brows their other offerings. It's a small company but there's a ridiculous number of different models and designs. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great slingshot! *by J***X on January 7, 2018* Excellent slingshot! I've had two or three 'wrist rocket' type slingshots over the years and enjoyed them. Then a year or so back, I saw this new generation of slingshots and saw videos of shots people were making with them. Pretty impressive stuff!Ended up purchasing the Simple Shot Scout. At first I wasn't as impressed as I felt like I should've been - didn't seem like it was shooting all that hard. It seemed like maybe I wasn't getting all the bands had to offer. Did some research on the Simple Shot Academy part of the website and found information on setting draw length. I'm an archer, so I understand draw length. Turns out I needed to set the draw length. I used the information from Simple Shot Academy to cut my bands to get the correct draw length. Now she's shooting just right!Excellent manufacturing quality. Easily adjustable. Plenty of upgrades available from Simple Shot. The Scout fits easily in a jacket pocket (try that with a stinkin' wrist rocket!). Highly accurate. Light weight. I'm hooked!I shoot Daisy 1/2" glass marbles and Daisy 3/8" steel balls. ### ⭐ Received Broken in Half *by K***R on December 26, 2018* The slingshot I received was broken in half. I am not sure what kind of force it would take to do such a thing, but I am very concerned about the structural integrity of your product. This was a Christmas gift and needless to say the recipient was highly disappointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/149341860-the-scout-hunting-slingshot](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/149341860-the-scout-hunting-slingshot) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
