    That 3D Hunter came today, just got back from the range a little bit ago and really liked shooting it. I had to make a few sight adjustments because my anchor is different, so everything was shooting left. Just gonna have to keep at it to get a consistent anchor since I haven't really ever shot a hand-held before. I can say that I felt like my shots were much tighter and noticed a big difference in my 40-50 yard shots being much more on target than my wrist release (Fletcher .44)

    Gonna figure out how to make a "sling" for it.

    Tied up a sling tonight. Poked around for a few things that I have seen before and just went at it ... nothing like problem solving a diy ... and paracord is fun. I'll get some picture up tomorrow.

    Certainly useful. I have 100ft of it just sitting there waiting to make a couple of lanyards. Even bought some 'skull' beads to fancy them up. Might even look into making a belt.

    Got a good amount left, plan on making a lanyard for my range finder. Have 1 thing I want to change on the release sling and that is a clasp that I will add later.

    ^^ The way it should be, never having to know if customer service is great or not! Too bad it isn't that way for all companies. It makes you wonder when eveyone knows about great customer service from a company doesn't it? ^^

    ==

    Not the best pictures, cell phone with crappy flash = bad image ... but you get the idea. Yes I used a Gorilla to model the photos.

    Basically used paracord as the main lanyard, did up some cobra weave and then another cobra to use as a 'tight/loose' line. Have it hooked up with a small ring at the bottom to another paracord knot that goes through the handle. Would like to attached a clasp at the end to to have a quick connect for in/out of the stand or target.

    Well done droppixel, very nice!

    How does the 'tight/loose' line thingy hold? I would have used a 'Cord-Lok' (http://cgi.ebay.com/Coghlans-Coghlan...-/110532810240) mainly because of how lazy I am.

    It actually holds fairly well. It is a tight knot, but loose enough that you can move it. Closes up the strap enough to keep it from slipping off my hand. I have seen a bunch of people that have made these do the same thing, so I figured I'd give it a shot.
