SlingShot animation

Greetings,
I am trying to animate a slingshot animation using spring bone or FFD. How could I pin the rubber part to the slingshot handle part so only the rubber part would be stretched.Thanks

Garry Pye made a really good slingshot:

First of all, to Toystorylab, thanks for the kind words. When I wanted to create a sling shot, in my head it worked with using bones in the rubber bands. It did not. It drive me crazy. I ended up animating the slingshot prop using an animated sprite sequence. It did the job I felt.

Thanks both. I’m working using FFD tool. The only problem is that you can’t reduce the number of points. They are sometimes too much. Anyways will share if I make something showable. Thanks again.
