since i got it that the one-string-sling is not a good design for large (tennis balls) ammo (if the cords are braided, if they are just a thin string, than with those add-onns in the pouch they work great), i had a tought how to make another one-material sling.
ok, so it's basically a 12 string braided split pouch design (make a fingerhole of 6 string braid, than overlap them to a 12 string). braid in round style, than a cm before the pouch turn it into a flat braid, than split it in two 6 string flat braids, but just for another cm or two, and than braid 3 braids (4 strings each). than close the pouch in two flat, one flat, and round retention cord.
that way you can get a braided sling for tennis balls, without thouse troublesome knots at all, and have a pouch balls will not fall out prematurely. (in normal split designs, or normal one-string slings, tennis balls allways fall out before i planned tham to do so)
anyhow i type all of this because i haven't had the time to braide one (accutally, i have braided one, but as the idea came to my mind, the retention cord turned to be too short, and the sling (all ready short, so shortening the anchor cord had no sense) was useless), so when i braid and test it i'll try to photo it (together with two or three other slings i'd like to show you), so it may be clearer when you see it.
