My dad would say that's not a sling shot, that's a catapult. I believe he's right, but the english language has a way of evolving. He was English, and I guess they called the Y shaped device with rubber a catapult. A sling was a piece of string with a pouch in the middle that you spun like an olympic thrower around your head, then let go of one end. He made one and showed me. It would have been deadly in ancient combat. He put a hell of a dent in a sign about 50 feet away.
