Which Slingshot is best? Comparing the Scout XT, Scout LT(2) and Scout X.

Which Scout slingshot is right for me? Glad you asked. Here's the answer:

Design & Size: The Scout XT features wider forks (approximately 10 mm more than the Scout LT), providing a more substantial grip. This makes it well-suited for a hammer grip, although it is versatile enough for other grip styles.
Grip & Comfort: It accommodates various hand sizes and shooting preferences. The larger size offers more room for error, making it a good option for beginners.
Band Attachment: The XT uses a traditional band attachment system, which might be less convenient compared to newer models with integrated clips.
Popularity: The Scout XT has been a top seller for years and is favored by many due to its robust design and ease of use.

Design & Size: The Scout X is a modern iteration of the original Scout XT. It maintains similar dimensions but incorporates a more ergonomic and versatile design.
Grip & Comfort: Designed for various grip styles including full pinch, thumb brace, and hammer grip. It features removable scales and an optional handle weight for customization.
Band Attachment: The integrated clips system simplifies band changes and supports both over-the-top (OTT) and through-the-fork (TTF) shooting configurations.
Features: Includes fiber optic sighting references for improved accuracy and comes with multiple accessories for a comprehensive shooting experience.

Design & Size: The Scout LT is more compact than the XT, with narrower forks. Its smaller size makes it ideal for pocket carry and those who prefer a pinky hole in the design.
Grip & Comfort: It is tailored more towards a pinch or thumb support grip, making it less suitable for a hammer grip. The ergonomic design is praised for its balance and comfort.
Band Attachment: The Scout LT2, an updated version of the LT, features integrated clips for easy band attachment and versatility between OTT and TTF setups.
Customization: The LT's modular design allows for removable handle scales and the addition of palm swells, enhancing grip customization and comfort.

Scout XT: Best for those who prefer a larger, more robust slingshot with a substantial grip and traditional design. Ideal for beginners due to its forgiving size and ease of use.
Scout X: Offers a blend of modern design and traditional robustness with enhanced features like integrated clips and customizable options, suitable for both beginners and seasoned shooters.
Scout LT: Great for users who prioritize compactness and customization. Its smaller size and ergonomic design make it a favorite for those who prefer a more discreet and pocket-friendly slingshot.

Your choice depends on your preferences for size, grip style, and the importance of features like integrated clips and customization. All three models offer high-quality shooting experiences tailored to different needs and preferences.

Just ordered the scout LT2 slingshot . Can't wait to get it. This is my fourth different slingshot I've got from simpleshot and I like them all.

I just ordered the scout x today for my first ever slingshot . I am also from NC and was wondering if there are any slingshot shoots here in NC ?

I’m just starting out and bought the Scout X. I could’ve chosen any of them but the Scout X was what I went with because of the sights and the customization options. I heard that the slingshot itself really doesn’t matter. For me it was the personality that stood out to me. It does feel really nice and I can knock off the lids of bottles already. Only practiced like 2 days now. I’m getting good results and am happy with my purchase. The only thing with me now is I’m highly interested in the Pro model.

Love my Scout X, but once I got the Scout LT2 I haven’t picked up any other. It’s a great combination of the X and LT.

Awesome frames so far x and LT got my eye on LT 2

[TheGilbertBystander]

LT2 for me. Something about it (everything?) Is perfect.

[VermontFun]

I have the scout x and lt and just got the scout lt2. I shoot so incredibly well with the scout x i dont want to shoot the lt2 lol. Seriously some days i walk through the woods and shoot water droplets off branches and just scream "Oh my god!" I cant believe i am able to shoot so precisely.

[dougroll]

I started with a x then got the LT then the LT2. I like them all.

[Andyloweplinks]

It was my first adult frame as well. Still top frame

[dionisiojulaton]

The Scout X is too slippery , I wish it s still the same handle and with clips like scout XT handle

[armandogonzales]
