Standard ''paracord'' model, new EDC
Made from 1 long strand of ''cheap'' 4mm cordage, but it has less stretch than the real thing. I like this cheaper cord more than real paracord for slings. This cord is quite firm.
Length - arm to mid chest. Large netted pouch can cradle and sling baseball sized projectiles comfortably
How do you make the holes ?
I use an empty plastic ballpoint pen cartridge, with the end cap taken off and shaved with a knife to be completely smooth.. I use this as a splicing needle. I push the cord for the net in the back of the cartridge, and push the whole thing through the middle of the cord that's being spliced
Tested the last 3 slings I posted here for about an hour today with good stones. My new green EDC performed best for me. Throws the furthest, most powerful casts (logically as it is the longest) of all three, it has the least stretch and is the most silent due to the tab. I am growing to like the silence.
