I am looking for a powerful slingshot setup with a large pouch capable of shooting marbles long distances. We occasionally encounter aggressive coyotes while walking our dogs, and my goal is simply to raise some dust near them to discourage and harass them—not to injure them.

I'm interested in either a flat-band slingshot or a traditional round-band slingshot. I would need a fairly large pouch to accommodate marbles.

This may be obvious to experienced users, but I don't know much about slingshots, so I would appreciate any recommendations for suitable slingshots, bands, and pouches.

Thank you.

As the title says. I live in central Calif.

1. How much pressure to put on the stones while sharpening?

2. Do stones need to be cleaned often? How often?

3. When resharpening do I need to use all grades.

4. How to place the blade in the exact same position (depth in the holder) when resharpening.

I'm making a Barn Owl Presentation and am trying to find a site that has Barn Owl sounds: Calls, Chirrips, Hissing, Beak Clapping, like that. If you know of a site could you please let me know through a comment or PM. Thank you.

Do you have ideas for carrying the 22 rifle with a shoulder strap on my walk so it can be accessed easily? Thank you.

I want to know if this recipe is close to what you use to make sourdough biscuits.

• 1 cup sourdough discard (cold is fine)
• 1½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
• 6 tbsp cold butter (cubed)
• ¼–½ cup milk or buttermilk

I don't understand the "Sourdough Discard" thing. I've made sourdough bread for many years but have never had enough "discard" to make anything. Do some people make large amounts of starter to be used as discard in their recipes?

I can't find it. I've gone to liquor stores and a large Asian market an they don't have it. I bought some rice wine for cooking but it tastes horrible. Does anyone know where I can get it and/or is there a good substitute? Sake?
