Sling Shot!

[Diablo de Acero]

This Sling shot was made for me by Mr. Elysian Bikes
Tom Tolhurst. It is part of a run that he was making. I
like the details he put into it. Now those pesky tin cans and bottles that keep ending
up on my fence won’t stand a chance.

Vampires infiltrating the neighborhood?

😂😂 Vampires maybe! We do have deer that are very interested in the broccoli and tomatoes growing in the garden.

Look for clay shot on Amazon. They are made out of low-fired clay with wax or wax-like outer surface. The light weight means their velocity isn't has high as steel shot, and the clay shot disintegrates on impact. So the deer feel the sting but you aren't shooting anything that will penetrate their hides and cause real injury. And you aren't littering your garden with steel shot.

Thanks Jorn, That sounds like good idea. Usually we use Deerscram powder and dried orange peels. Both work really well for keeping the critters not interested. Deer seem to be pretty habitual. I just use it to make their visit more uncomfortable. They get the message and avoid the yard. Though my partner runs out of the house full tilt with a broom and loud shooing. She is the most effective deterrent>
