Tube Ties

What are the odds that all three of my favorite slings would have the bands untie at the same time? Two at the fork and one at the pouch. Thankfully I saw them before they totally let go and an injury occurred.

I think I will blame it on shooting very light ammo, clays and chickpeas. Not good for hunting anything bigger than Hornets, but fun to watch fly.

I had that happen once on my 3 wrist rockets out of the blue... It sure felt wierd for a bit only having a bb gun to shoot for the next hour or so as the new tubes set in on the wrist rockets. But those were my only 3 back then about 7 years ago :)
Now I also have extra tubes, bands and ties with me at all times with 2 wrist rockets and 3 slingshots in my bucket and the new bb gun holds 1000 bb's :)

Stretch your tubes a little more before you tie them Should solve the problem.

Yes, it just seemed odd that all three slipped the same day. These each have over a hundred shots on them.
