Found [[Inside the Deku Tree]], this [[Fairy Slingshot|Slingshot]] can hold up to 30 [[Deku Seed|seeds]]. Using it puts Link into a first-person perspective, and all shots arc downwards after traveling a while. Link can get a sack pouch capable of holding 40 seeds in the [[Lost Woods]] if he shoots the bulls-eye on the 'target' of the tree on the way to [[Saria]]. It has a [[Deku Scrub]] sitting on top of the tree in its hole. Link can acquire the 50 seed sack at the [[Shooting Gallery]] in [[Castle Town]].

The Slingshot in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' is sold by [[Sera]] at her shop in [[Ordon Village]], [[Sera's Sundries]], for 30 [[Rupee]]s.{{Ref|TP|4063|[[Sera]]}} Link can buy it once he has used the [[Fishing Rod]] to catch two [[Greengill]]s, one of which Sera's cat will take back to their master. If Link then enters Sera's Sundries, Sera will be very happy, telling Link her cat caught a fish all by himself.{{Ref|TP|3343|[[Sera]]}} Because she is so happy, she will give Link a [[Bottle]] of [[Milk]].{{Ref|TP|3340|Sera}} Now that Sera is happy again, Link can shop at her shop again, and subsequently the Slingshot.

After purchasing the Slingshot, Link can head to the small area where his [[Link's House|house]] can be found. Here, [[Malo]], [[Talo]], and [[Beth]] will be very excited to see Link has the Slingshot.{{Ref|TP|3545|[[Talo]]}} They will then set up a sort of targeting practice area, where the goal is to shoot down all the targets and scarecrow.{{Ref|TP|3570|Talo}} After shooting them all, the kids will be amazed.{{Ref|TP|3582|Kids of Ordon}} This part serves as the tutorial for the Slingshot, allowing Link to learn how to use it in a way that seems part of the story.

It functions the same way as the [[Hero's Bow]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', except that it arcs downward after a while. It is most useful against [[Walltula]]s, as they usually hang on vines and cannot be killed with a [[Sword]]. After Link acquires the [[Hero's Bow]] from the [[Goron Mines]], the Slingshot loses most of its utility since the Bow can be used in its place to a more effective degree.

Link obtains the Slingshot after finding the [[Bucha|Kikwi elder's]] friends. Unlike the Bow and Arrow, the Slingshot only requires Link to point and shoot with the Wiimote, so the Slingshot isn't too different from the ''Twilight Princess'' version. [[Link]] will simply take aim and shoot. This allows Link to fire at enemies quickly in battle when he can't take the time to aim with the Bow, due to its aiming mechanism.

The Slingshot can be upgraded to the [[Scattershot]] with 3 [[Jelly Blob]]s, 2 [[Amber Relic]]s, and 2 [[Dusk Relic]]s.
