Ha! I will gladly take the blame for that. I think it's yet another worthy sacrifice in the pursuit of slinging;)

My new Flavor ( English Brown Ale with Orange Must )

The single woven pouch is an old 'gal...me thinks it's time to retire her and find a new lass.  Seriously though it's a ticking time bomb.

Very nice! What is the diameter of the cords of your sling?

Sehr schön! Kannst du mir den Durchmesser der Schnüre der Schleudern verraten?

Nice slings!

lakeslinger wrote on Dec 5th, 2013 at 5:40am:
The tiger sling throws very good, even small ammo is held securely in the pouch when loaded correctly, i.e. using Teg´s advice from page 269 (reply #4032) "I started to shoot slings asymmetrically, which means that I place the shot not in the middle of the pouch, but more towards the release end so that the belly is nearly under the stone or ball."   


Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad to hear, that this also works for you.


I observed another advantageous effect of the asymmetric loading. Besides the fact, that the ammo has contact with less distance of the pouch and releases better the rock sits in the pouch with more stability against sideways slip out and the cords do not tangle (the folded sling shows less distorsion). I wrote it more detailed in this discussion: http://slinging.org/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1386720049/30

I only can recommend Teg´s idea to every slinger, independent if using split or solid pouches.

@Slinging_wolf
I used with both slings 24 strand nazca-braid.
by differently thick strand or several threads per strand one can achieve quite different efekte.

Cradle-slings based on the discussion http://slinging.org/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1386720049/30#30
and some more experimental slings. The white paracord sling I´ve mentioned here http://slinging.org/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1385603364/30#30. Thanks to Timothy Potter for the how to (http://www.seekyee.com/Slings/howtos/knotslings.htm)!
