Bandanas as Makeshift slings.
Feb 20th, 2006 at 12:04pm
 
Has any one tried a regular bandana as a sling? I had an old greasy Harley bandana in the bottom of my saddlebag that when rolled up, made a fairly decent sling. A little short though. 8)

several years ago i tried slinging rocks with a bandana.  as i recall, it didn't work well because i had no idea what i was doing.  i would probably be able to make it work pretty well now though.

i just thought that the other day! i had another idea about improvised slings that was pretty good, but can't remember it now Sad.

then i realized that i don't own a bandana.

just a new thought: what about a garden hose, split down the middle, trimmed to size and pressed flat? hmm, not exactly the ease of use/concealability/coolness of bandana...

a garden hose would be really stiff. Too stiff, i think to do anything with.
