Very Nice Saluki!
Noli rogare pro onia pauciora, rogate pro scapulas latiores.

I go afield with bent wood, stick and string in search of serenity  through my primal quest.

Okay, Hill Family...
Tip protectors for these skinny tips. What are you using or making. Looking through the great collections there appears to be a variety of different things adorning the tips of all your bows (some with nothing at all) I can't seem to find them skinny enough. I'm too cheap to blindly buy them, and can't seem to make the pinkie tips of gloves work for anything more than string keepers.
I now have two bare wesley specials that I want to get something on to protect them since I am as clumsy as they come.
Your thoughts and insight are greatly appreciated.
Shootz!

Use old exercise resistance bands, cut them into small pieces, works great.

If anyone owns longbows from both HHA and James Berry I'd really appreciate it if you could post up some pics of the limb tips side by side.....

I cut about 1" off Gerber latex baby bottle nipples.  They fit my NM classic perfectly. They came in a box of 4, so it makes for cheap protectors.

I use the leather tip protectors that you have to tie on.

I buy the black vinyl tip protectors from 3R and cut them in half where the "waist" indent is.  Turn that sideways and slip over the tip of my Wesley's, Half Breed, and Wildcat no problem.

Put this on another thread, but  thought it should go on the HH thread, too. The Cheetah took down a turkey hen this morning; deer are next on the agenda.
