exist
Background — they're typically used for
slingshot fishing
.
They typically have some kind of
barbs
built in. For arborist line placement, I would probably remove the barbs.

Usually they have no fletching, and are instead stabilized using the line they're trailing behind them. However, a few are available:

Piaoyu darts

Frameless slingshots
are a thing. This could be useful if I'm ultralight hiking, maybe.
Fishing reels have been mounted in multiple places:
wrist-mounted fishing reels
a minuscule "fishing rod" mounted to the bottom of the slingshot
, to which a fishing reel is mounted

Slingbows
exist.
Slingbow fishing
is a thing as well.
Frameless slingbow
is an option as well, for a super minimal setup.

the simplest and quickest way to get started
