i prefer my wrist sling tbh, but as said it is personal preference, i just never got used to having a loop over finger and thumb it just didn't feel "right" to me and i never had the confidence in it. the wrist sling however feels right as it doesn't feel like i've got it on until the bow drops away.

just my thoughts on the matter.

I will add to (or second or third or what ever) the raves about the K1 Perfect Fingersling. I buy them 3 or 4 at a time and wouldn't use anything else.

As a result of this post, I tried a borrowed finger sling tonight. It was good. I will continue to use it and forget the wrist sling.

This is what the K1 Thumbsling looks like if it's any consolation?
