RE: Catapult for hunting post SHTF
Rocks what is your priority? is it to hunt small game to put food on the table or is it to develope the skill of using a catapult to hunt with incase of a shtf situation, if its is the prior, invest your time and money getting yourself a decent air rifle and scope, if it is the latter then invest your time in learning to make a catapult and practice on targets in your back yard every spare minute you can, because that is the only way you will get accurate enough with one to go hunt with.
I'm the opposite to Steve in that I put a lot of value in learning as many different skills as possible particularly old tech including knowing how to knapp a flint arrow head and make a bow from scratch, but when I go to hunt to put meat on the table I will always choose my rifle with all the bells and whistles on it because that makes fulfilling the task that much easier the other skills are only there as back up.
