With the hunter bands, the dankun will be just as powerful as the hunter catapult. It is awkward to tie them, though, as the dankun is made for tubular bands, but in general there are ways to attach flat bands to it, too.
But the other advantage of the hunter catapult is the low fork. This way, the wrist strain is much reduced. This means more accuracy and also more power, ultimately.
The hunter is also made out of high quality multiplex wood, which makes it much lighter than the steel dankungs.
on the above illustrated model, the fork is 2 cm over the resting point , so lower is not possible without getting danger to hit yourself ;)
and i don't know how you think, but for my opinion, stainless steel is the better material for a slingshot(frame)
the weight is about 190 gram, that is not too much ( for me )
For a hunter, the lighter, the better. Steel is nice and I like it, too, but the multiplex is very solid as well.
I have ordered a dankun, too, and as soon as it is here. The Slingshot Channel will feature a direct comparison, including a ballistic gelatin test. Then we will see.
