Frank.

If you are shooting better without a sling could mean you have the sling too tight.

Your sling should be loose around your wrist. It is there simply to keep the bow from dropping to the ground after the shot, nothing else.

I took mine off off my bow. I saw it as something that might snag up as wellasan unnecessary procedure having to slip your hand through it. I don't miss mine. JMO

I keep mine so loose that I don't even notice it when I am shooting.
