Yes it is but with a lot of practice the sling would come easy also after a while.

Well If my thumb holds out, I shoot at least 1/2 hour a day. Although my rubber was really slow today. High temp of 22. Man , smack a thumb in this weather , it might feel like you cut it off. I've only been at it a month.

Plus, a Cedar mouthpiece helps wick some of the moisture blown into a flute.....I used to shim the bottom of my flutes block ( the piece tied on top that controls air flow) with Cedar for that very reason.....I can see it also helping to keep some moisture out of the blowgun bore....if left unfinished on the inside that is.
