New Line Launcher 1 Year, 3 Months ago  
Here a is a_link_ to tree line launcher I saw posted on youtube. It does not mention how it was designed but looks interesting. I was wondering if anyone has seen it before in operation.

Good toy 1 Year, 3 Months ago  
Oldtimer-
I wonder how high the line hawk can be shot.
The film makes me reminds of that 3 years ago,when I was in the instructor's course training,my class mate told me:"The man who got most toy die win"

Interesting device for sure. I don't see the need to store the tag line in the gun, I'd rather keep it separate, I like my own line management system better, that looks slow spinning the small handle to take up the line at the bottom.

One problem with it is that it's quite a bit larger then the other current tools for throwing fishing line like a hand slingshot or crossbow.

I think Elliot has nailed it, looks like a toy
