Nice slings!

lakeslinger wrote on Dec 5^th, 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.

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)!
