Posted mie to red beard this morning - so I can't post pics anyway

It's a good bit of kit, tried it out with a tennis ball last night - plus I've cracked the whole stitching cord to leather bit as well.

Just set my hole punch on it's smallest setting and punch a row of holes where the cord is going to go. Man did that make life easier

I could put a lot more layers of stitching in - now way should that retention loop wear out

got Morhy's sling earlier today. Love it. pic is already posted earlier in the thread, but meh. It is a really nice change from my hemp Balearic ones... gets a little rough on the hands when it starts to get colder out. Really clean release , nice handiwork, and i love the coloring. plain brown, though classic, gets a little boring after a while.

I received SlingingRat's sling in the mail today. It's a great looking sling. The pouch has a small slit in it. Big enough to maneuver the pouch around irregular shaped stones but small enough that nothing but a pebble could fall out. Diamond shaped pouch of a good size. Well woven not too tight, not too loose. Also has a nice bead on the release cord. I'm very happy with it. I have not slung any stones with it yet but judging from my practice throws I imagine it will work as good as it looks.

Thanks SlingingRat! Cheesy

Thank u for such a good review Morphy i am very glad u liked it Grin

As for the release bead i am going to ''try'' and tell u how to do this and if dosent work i will have try and take some pics anyway when u are making the rease cord u have tapper it so the bead will fit on it then about an inch or so from were u want the bead to be put a kitting needle it the cord to hold open a small gap then do this right were u want the bead to be then put bead on the cord and tread the end of the cord though the two gaps the needles were holding open till now and then put whipping on it ot hold it there and thats it

As for the whipping this i will have to take pics of cause i dont know how to tell u to do it with out them sorry

When I go bear hunting all I take is a bat and when I find the bear I give him the bat to make things even&&&&When the goverment takes all the guns who ever has the most swords axes clubs spears bows and slings WILL RULE THE WORLD A HAHAHAHAHAHAHA sorry did I say that out loud
