Modern slingshot enthusiasts have a lot to thank Charles Goodyear for. In 1839 he introduced the world to vulcanized rubber, patented it in 1844 and the rest, as they say, is history.

Although traditional slingshots were totally DIY, they paved the way for modern hunting slingshots. Rubber bands and tubing have evolved to deliver exceptional strength and distance.
