I've never used it but (no offense to Sherrill's) that Wichard snap has always seemed unreasonable priced to me.

West Marine has a brass release that is similar to Sherrills that is also madew buy Wichard. It cost me about $10.


I'll sell you mine with the shoestring AND floss for $45, err, $40! :D
 
I'll just take the dental floss and throw ball please. Who needs the big shot? I say you all should take them off the truck and throw them away or send them back for store credit. I was awfull with hand throwing a throw ball at one time. I took my big shot off the truck and one year later I got 3rd at the TCC for the throw ball. It was a close event. Just my opinion. If you all meaning big shot users want to be less then great than keep using them. I can still remember the day I had to put it away only because I could throw much higher the big shot.

Practice.



Thats just it. I may use the throwline once a week, or once a month. Or I may use it 10 times in one day(rarely).

I could go practice, but that would interfere with my rec climbing.

I don't own a Big Shot and have only used one twice. I can throw accurately (hitting target within 4 or 5 throws) to about 80' and can toss up to 100' but accuracy fades at that height. I think that the height of your person is a large factor in high tosses; I'm 6'4"
