Mydogsbetter 15 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 That's a decent shape, a nice wide and deep fork. Let him move up the elastic as he gains accuracy. A good tip is chained elastic bands, they're easy to make stronger or weaker and readily available. It wouldn't matter whether it's made from gold or old toilet roll tubes, it's his first catty and made by his dad, it'll be priceless to him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
