Has anyone had any experence with this launcher/slingshot thing. I was interested in it because I live in the suberbs of kc and didnt want to disturb anyone around like I might have done with a Retrieve-R-Trainer.

Just saw your post. I bought the hyperdog dummy launcher over the winter for our pup. Worked pretty good............and dog loved it, but then she'll retrieve anything/anywhere until she drops. My husband could get it to launch a little over 100' (me not so far), but then the slingshot bars bowed just a little bit. It still works though, but they could have made it a tad stronger. You get an extra hook, so you can have 2 dummies and an extra rubber band slingshot. At $25-29.00, it was a pretty good toy to play with pup with. Denise

I got it and returned it, I could only shoot it like 25 ft and my dad only like 60 and I can throw it alot farther than that usually.

Yeah, I guess I should mention that my husband is 6.5' tall and a former football player--so that probably didn't hurt with getting the long distance out of it. :lol: Haven't used it since we got birds and launchers, but I'll keep it around and maybe it'll see a little use with the next pup too.
