Title: "New" use for bowhush?
Post by: Rangeball on October 21, 2008, 05:09:00 PM

Just thinking through my fingers...

I just installed bowhush on my bear supermag yesterday.  Haven't even had a chance to shoot it yet to see how well it worked, but while I was putting it on a thought occurred to me:

Has anyone ever used this above and below their nock point on the serving to shoot without a glove or tab?  I was thinking knot/wrap/knot and a drop of super glue on each knot. Stuff seems pretty light and resilient, so shouldn't rob much performance.  Seems like it would cushion your fingers well, but before I tried it I wanted to see if this wheel has already been invented and where to look for flats  :)

Thanks.

A felted wool would work better.....if you want to email me I'll send you a strand to try.

Hey Terry,

I'm looking into the felting of wool articles. Do you have any advice for me?
