I bought one like Michael Waddelluses from Cabelas for about 10 bucks. It really is just kinda like a sock without the toes sewn on it.

Can't imagine not using an arm guard. I always keep a few rubber bands with me just in case I forget my armguard. Ya gotta keep your bow arm sleeve flat as possible.

I either use rubber bands or I twist the arm of the shirt around my arm until it takes up all the slack.

I use a forearm guard, but not as cool as BobCo's!

I just take a few rubberbands and put them around my arm. That compresses the sleeve down enough that it doesn't get in the way.

I have a brown hunting sock that I cut the foot end off it. It had a hole in it anyway
Pull it up on my sleeve. Works great

I use camo duct tape. I guess that's the redneck in me.

Somebody should invent something for this. It's a serious problem for all archers. It could have straps on it that strap around your forearm and keep your clothes out of the way...

We could name this invention something creative like "an arm guard".
