My brother in law Scott does leather work as well as Taxidermy in Cody, Wy and made a replica of the first armguard on the page for me: I love it and he did an excellent job on it...

Since the bowstring doesn't hit my arm upon arrow release with either of my two Blacktail TD recurves, I don't wear an arm guard.
Blacktail TD Recurve: 66", 42# @ 30". Arrow: 32", 2212. PW: 75 Grains. AW: 421 Grains. GPP: 10.02
Blacktail TD Recurve: 66", 37# @ 30". Arrow: 32", 2212. PW: 75 Grains. AW: 421 Grains. GPP: 11.37

Where do you guys get your shock cord from?  Can't seem to find any in the local hardware stores or craft shops here.

How thick is the leather on the custom ones? I'm going to be running trad along side my wheely bow shooting next year and a guard with a knife on it would make the perfect winter project.

I've got quite a bit of 4mm thick hide here from my sheath making days.

"Froggy" your killing me. I lost a Tim Robert's armguard very similar to that this past season. Tough to beat Tim's work. Glad he decided to get back into the business. I understand that he has teamed up with "stickshooter" on the knife/ armguard combination. As most know, "robtattoo" was Tim's knife provider until Rob closed up shop and moved to the US. Anyone looking for a good custom armguard should consider Tim's work.
