Looks like something Gear Head archery would produce. I vaguely remember them having something like this a few years ago at Harrisburg but haven't seen anything since.

 

Shoots a steel ball (i.e.; catapult) or dual purpose (bow and catapult)? Can't imagine the ball projectile would be real accurate...maybe on the order of a slingshot and you would need a supply of steelies.

 

knuckle balls....and the faster the less accurate

whichever direction the balls starts to spin will dictate the flight path

if they are really clever, they might be able to introduce a clockwise twist like a bullet....but i don't see how that can be done as is

 

I'd be too worried about things going wrong at release. I wouldn't want the steel ball heading for my bow hand at high speed. Then again, I don't like slingshots for the same reason, so probably just me being paranoid.

 

Can you tell us about it? Does it shoot arrows too or just the steel balls? Looks like the ball is attached to the string!? Magnet?

I thought the name implied having the courage to actually haul it back and release a projectile.....

 

Way back in the day they made a cross bow that shot steal ball bearings forget the name of it but they made it for a challenge on forged in fire tv show

 

Would be fun to shoot cans from the back deck

Hope that answers your question, Leon.

I didn't know you speak Chinese, you international man of mystery, you!

 

Looks like a China knock off of Gear Head bow.

 

Read the "About this" section of the Amazon ad. Whoever wrote it is not particularly familiar with common / standard archery phrasing.

 

Imagine shooting , the ball comes off weird , bounces off the riser , hits you right in the face
