Hey, thanks for the feedback on my slings!
Paleo, I used to think split pouches had to be the dumbest idea since ramblers. Then for some reason I tried one and haven't made a solid braided pouch since. If you make the pouch right, you can sling small, medium and large ammo. I like the way they look and the way they work. The last two (pictured) have really wide pouches. I don't know why I did that, but I'm going to go back 3/4 inch per split.
Fundi, I'm assuming you mean the natural fiber (jute) sling. I like it ok, but in my op, it isn't as good as the b&w over hemp core sling. I don't know exactly what jute is made of. Looked it up and still don't really know. I do know it's a bit light and actually feels dry. I coated it with besswax, but will have to give it another go. The thing just sucked it up and next day still felt dry! But then, as you know, if you need to make a fire... Haven't run across any flax yet, so I still think hemp is probably the best natural fiber for slings.
