Title: New arm guard and glove
Post by: HickoryBill on March 12, 2012, 12:36:04 am

I usually shoot bare fingers and no arm guard. Well some of the bows I've been making lately are hard on the fingers and hurt like crazy if you get string slap.I looked around for a decent looking arm guard and shooting glove..Well needless to say I didn't want  to spend the 50 or so dollars for the set,so I made my own...Hope ya like.

Fine looking gear there Bill!  store bought gloves and armguards would just clash with your turkey fletchings!  dang, that sounds like some sort of interior decorator comment.... lol.  anyway, great workmanship.
