<human>: What's the difference between a slingshot and a bow?
<bot>: A slingshot is typically made of a long, flexible material such as leather or nylon. It has a handle that you hold in one hand and a pouch for holding the projectile (e.g. stones, lead pellets, etc.). The slingshot is used by pulling back the string and releasing it to fire the projectile. A bow is a weapon consisting of a long, thin, elastic member (usually wood) with a string attached to each end. When the bowstring is pulled back, the limbs are drawn together, storing energy that is released when the string is released, propelling the arrow forward.
