    The Scout X

    The new modern classic slingshot that redefines versatility and ease of use for both beginners and experts

    The original Scout XT slingshot was released to the world in 2012 and, since that time, has introduced more folks to the joy of slingshots than any other single slingshot design of the modern era. However, we at SimpleShot can’t stop evolving, and the Scout was ready for its next evolution.

    Introducing the Scout X, a collaboration between Mark Seljan and SimpleShot. We took years of feedback and spent over 18 months developing the Scout X to give you, the dedicated slingshot enthusiast, what you want!

    The Scout X

    • Next-Generation Design: Building on the legacy of the original Scout, the Scout X maintains familiar dimensions with a stout grip and wide forks.
    • Versatile Grip Options: Designed for full pinch, thumb brace, or hammer grip, making it suitable for users with varying hand sizes.
    • Integrated Band Attachment: Features integrated clips for effortless band changes, supporting both through-the-fork and over-the-top orientations.
    • Precision Sighting: Equipped with built-in fiber optic sighting references for accurate use, regardless of your preferred band setup.
    • Enhanced Customization: Comes with removable scales and an optional handle weight to personalise your experience.

    Why Choose the Scout X?

    The Scout X is reminiscent in all the best ways of the original Scout XT and entirely new with its modern styling and integrated functionality. If you are looking for the one slingshot to rule them all, the Scout X just might be the one!

    • Whether you have the smallest or largest hands, the Scout X's adaptable design ensures a comfortable and effective grip for all users.
    • The integrated clips and precision sighting make band changes and improvements more accessible than ever.
    • With removable scales and optional weights, the Scout X can be tailored to fit your personal style and preferences.
    • Ideal for those new to the sport or looking to upgrade, the Scout X is the perfect blend of tradition and innovation, offering something for everyone.

    Best Birthday Present Ever

    I always struggle with what to get my husband for his birthday, but this year - for his 30th!! - he requested a slingshot. A little digging and a few search-history stalks later, I found this one that he'd saved! It had sold out, but the team was prompt in replying to my enquiry and I was notified of restocking in just a couple of days!
    The look on my husband's face when it arrived was PRICELESS. It's his new favourite thing and I'm sure it'll be a slippery slope into the world of all things slingshot! Great quality, perfect for a beginner. Highly recommend!

    I feel like I’m 12 all over again.

    I’m really enjoying this set. Once I tuned the bands up it’s pretty powerful. The included catch box and targets are fantastic for saving ammo. I’ve only shot clay so far, love the little puff of dust you get from a hard target.
    Service was great, delivery speedy. I’ve since ordered more clay bands and they arrived fast as well.
