GETTING STARTED
Your Path to a Better Setup
01
Evaluate Your Ammo & Draw Length
Projectile weight and draw length are the two most important determinants of appropriate latex thickness. We offer latex in thicknesses of 0.4mm-0.7mm.
02
Select Your Pouch
Match your pouch to your ammo size and preferences, from 42mm for 1/4" ammo up to 70mm for 1/2" ammo. Kangaroo leather or microfiber.
03
Select Your Latex
Choose our "White Lightening" latex if you prefer an ultra-smooth draw and light pull; choose our "Firefly Yellow" if you prefer a smooth draw, medium pull, and faster speeds; choose our "Sky-streak Blue" if you prefer a heavier pull with the fastest projectile velocities.
04
Choose Your Taper
Use our acrylic taper templates to fine-tune your setup based on all other factors. The difference between an 18-10mm and 19-11mm taper may not seem like much, but it can affect feel substantially.

How much will international shipping cost me?
That depends on what country you live in. We'll use Pirate Ship to get you the lowest shipping cost possible, but factors like distance from the USA and potential tariffs make charging a flat-rate fee impossible. Please message us for a detailed quote on international shipping!
