Now that not only competitions are canceled, but even indoor training, it can be nice to have something to do. Make some of your own gear with paracord.

A few years ago, it became trendy to make bracelets out of paracord. It was both fun and creative, and you didn’t need an engineering degree to manage it. It’s an art that has somewhat fallen out of style.

But if we mix archery into it today, there are plenty of fun things you can learn to make. If you don’t feel like making them yourself, Miranda sells handmade straps, bands, and slings via arcrez: https://www.arcrez.se/sale.php

However, if you feel like crafting a bit yourself, we really recommend it. Only your own imagination limits what you can create. It could be anything from recurve bow straps, finger slings, bowstring slings, protocol holders, or bands and straps of all kinds.

There are many books available in regular bookstores, but also many do-it-yourself guides online. We’ve selected a few links that might be useful:
