I was wondering when someone would clue in to my fun.
I don't know if you're still out there, HH, but I tried the 20 oz bottle today to get a line over a hanger, and it worked beautifully. Great idea!

How you guys storing this stuff? I keep 2 plastic electric cord reels (w built in stand) in pickup w 200 ft ea and 8 oz wt. (2 in case one gets stuck) I flake out a pile of line on a clean spot before shooting, then reel it in to put away using my finger like a guide on a fishing reel to distribute it over the reel. Anybody got a better way?

Took a osage orange trunk split into three by three
staves six foot long. Took a draw knife and followed grain
to one continuous growth ring. Took horse rasp and rasped side
and belly to spec. Tillered to fine tune limbs, pounded buffalo
sinew and separated into bats discarding membrane. Stuck bats
into hide glue and placed on back of almost completed bow!
Bought a bow string as sinew is expensive and hard to make
a string. Bought an arrow put a weight were brood head is
usually. Tied a string to weight and shoot it over limb desired!

A compact, strong and ergonomic throwball
Slender design decreases the chance of it getting stuck.
Notice web at the bottom of throwball which allows you to clip a biner between rope and ball so you dont have to untie the ball from the string. This also makes isolating branch crotches easy by jumping rope over stubs etc.

weights
i found that the yellow bag for the big shot is great for lower shots because it doesn't get caught up as much and falls down faster and smoother with it's increased weight. the red bag is much better for higher shots but unfortunatley it gets caught more and does not like to come down some times. Get a few extra weights and lines so if you get one stuck you have some back-ups to set your line.

There really is an art to throwballing isn't there. And its not something someone can just teach you either, practice, practice.
