a standard hunting slingshot, and a spool of Berkley FIRELINE, 50lb test, and several 1 oz fishing wieghts.

the FIRELINE is so slick and tough, that the little 1oz lead weight will punch thru a heavy canopy and return to ground in seconds. Fireline is strong enoguh to pull your rope up, it (fireline) often breaks at a MUCH higher load rating that is on the package. I have 80lb Fireline break at over 130lbs loads.

small, COMPACT, light, effective.

takes practice.
