Hey guys!
Looking for a new arm guard. Fairly new to the trad stuff. Any suggestions?

Thanks

We have a nice selection from Mike's Archery Leather.  The new Latigo basic is a bargain.

We also have some attractive offerings on the Grizzly page:

Hope this helps, Tim @ Braveheart

Ditto on Mikes Archery Leather, they are great arm guards!

I have a couple of Mike's arm guards. Easy on and off, good leather and superb craftsmanship at a reasonable price.

I like Mike's arm guard as well

+1 on Mike as well. I've got his latigo armguard, and his hunter quiver. Great products at a ridiculously low price.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

A++ For Mike's arm guards!! I have the Latigo and also the youth model for  my daughter---they are well-crafted; you won't go wrong!

However, for hunting, I do prefer the longer arm guard from Rancho Safari it's 14" and for me , I like knowing that my sleeves are well tucked back- esp. in the later, colder months..

For hunting with heavy clothes/rain gear a nice long stretchy sock with the toe cut off.  Makes a nice bend at the elbow. Color is optional, never black with a brown bow and vice versa, also don't mix dots with stripes.  I could go on about how to match with pink fletches but probably to much fashion content to be strictly trad.

Elknutz, is that a toe sock so your fingers stay warm?  Should it be multicolored like my daughters socks with different colored toes?  I may have to try this idea with some of my old army wool socks.
