I don't sling a thing if I ain't got my sling!

Dear Ulrica,
I also noticed another thing you might want to try, which helped me that also might give you more comfort and power/accuracy potential when throwing. If you treat both cords as one, pinching them boith together, bringing the anchoring cord crossing naturally up from the anchoring finger in FRONT of your palm straight up across the index finger to the pinching thumb, just like the release cord, it will prevent fouling and take the release pressure off of the back/sides of your middle finger, making it easier and safer to sling harder and harder. I also prefer a wrist loop which makes this sort of habit more natural, neccesary and automatic, and the wirst can absorb mor pull and punishment than any single finger can! A mistake that would merely skin, or jerk the wrist hard could snap a finger completely broken!
