Lion Tamer

[John Ellison]

I need to place an order to Sherrills soon, and wonder about feedback on the L T . Have done a search and realize it would have to be modified to start in the middle of the line, but do twists stop it or just slow it down? Probably just a gadget that I dont need. Would be cool to play with though.

I'm gonna order it. Its so cheap, what the hale!

It appears my stick method ain't gonna cut it with Zing-It. I'm hoping the LT will let me load it into a gatoraid jug.

That would be so cool!

Sherrill markets it by filling a 2 litre soda bottle

It is a cool gadget that you may be able to live without. I cut a diagonal slit in mine so I could get the line in -mid line- and by putting my finger in the right spot it keeps it from jumping out. But the thing stays in my gear box most of the time. When the zing it is spread out over a lawn with a few twigs you've got to pretty much do it by hand. When the line gets twigs in it the tamer is a lamer. Line on concrete and it then works like you want it to, but how often are you not in grass with some moss or twigs laying around??

We do? I haven't seen that.


Oh, and thank you to John Ellison for catching the play on words with the product name. Line Tamer was my idea for the name.

I have the line tamer, and my groundies love it, as do I. I use it with zing it and I store 180' in a 1 gallon gatorade bottle and it plays out real smooth. They normally take the line to a clean part of the yard or to the driveway and do it from there.
