Thanks man!  No other tests as of yet.  Different positioning in the pouch is definitely something I want to try, along with the looped retention cord as IG mentioned to stabilize the arrow until release.

It's super fun when the projectiles are ice, but it's too time consuming to make them when I only get 10 throws and then the testing is over until another batch is made.  I think I'm going to order some of those rubber balls Morphy posted and was slinging in another thread.  I think they should be pretty cheap and an easy conversion to add the tail end of an arrow.

Lol you should also post your other creations!

My idea behind creating glandes is making something repeatable, cheap and biodegradable.

2nd paper clay attempt- added uncooked rice to add weight

Ahhh that's better.

Awesome! I do like the idea of it being completely biodegradable and also good for the birds. Seem to fly pretty well considering the material.

They aren't bad. Depending on your paste ratio, some hard throws disintegrate the glandes shortly after leaving the pouch, which to be honest leaves me with a feeling that my throws are too powerful. "EgoEggs™ you ever throw a stone over those mountains?"

Haha but I've noticed the smaller\seeds grains produce a denser glande, but seem more prone to me naturally giving it all the mustard I can do which gives me the cool visual of the glande just slowly getting smaller.

Another fun bonus if you don't like geese you can whip these at them 😂 haha I kid

Love the biodegradable glandes
Finally a use for unpuffed rice !

What are you using to mould those ?
