Default Bulky Sleeves

I'm having trouble with my string hitting my hunting jacket sleeve. I did an online search, and the only thing that I find was a bowhunting chest protector. Would this keep a sleeve out of the way, or is there something else available ??

Just get an armguard and strap it aroud your sleeve. It works for me

Yah an armgard will work but make sure it is not to small you dont want your sleeves coming out the ends.

Get tight fitting wool blend hunting sock cut the foot out of it and slide it on . this works awsome and is out of the why.

At times i have used tape, but if you get it to tight, it tends to bug you somewhat...

Good idea, thanks Rich...

Yep--what Rich said if an armguard won't do the trick.

Rancho Safari makes a full length arm guard, i have not tried it, but it looks like it would work. I saw this design in a 3 rivers archery magazine, and im sure the website would have it

Just in case, its www.3riversarchery.com
