Paracord Archery Wrist Sling (added a few extra pics)
Figured I might as well move this over from the other section.
Just got a wild hair and decided to make a wrist sling for my new bow, and figured it couldn't be too hard. This was my first ever attempt at making anything with paracord, and I thought it turned out quite well.

Barry,
Nice looking piece. Did you use an extisting pattern for this, or did you let form follow function and just make it as it needed to be?

I actually looked at a vid on YouTube, and decided that it couldn't be too hard. LOL

My son wants me to buy or make a braclet for him he is in the DNR and is out in the wilderness ever day and thinks it could come in handy

Not hard at all, actually a bracelet would be easier than the wrist sling is to make.Hobie wrote:Was it hard to do

That is a B-stinger ProHunter 8" with an 11 oz disk weight on the end. They come in different lengths and weights.Turkey Talker wrote:strange looking stabilizer. what kind is that?

Re: Paracord Archery Wrist Sling
Made another for my nephew's bow, threw his school colors in with a bit of camo.
These are the vids I watched, to figure out how to make them.

Yeah, my whole family is Black Bear college alumni, except for myself. My dad said, when they made the switch from Colonel Reb to the Black Bear, that he would be a Bulldog supporter from now on. LOL

Re: Paracord Archery Wrist Sling (added a few extra pics)
Here are some I finished up for some members on our MS hunting forum.
I got some ideas for turkey totes, and plan to give them a try here before long when I get a bit more free time.

Someone wanted the one I had on my bow, so I had to make me a new one. Tried something different, and it worked great.

Would y'all be interested in having a bit of HiViz Orange on your tote, to keep you from getting sniped by another hunter, when you are toting a bird out?vaturkey wrote:Turkey Talker wrote:ok man, whenever you are ready, make me a turkey sling and i will send you the fee... preferably dark green/brown/earth tone colors.

I don't need the orange color. If I get sniped, I'm pretty sure I had it coming.
