The hunter must have some kind of protection for the wristof the bow arm. When the string falls it often strikes the insideof the forearm about four inches above the wrist. A fewsmacks of the string will cause a bruise that swells up likea goose egg.
Fig. 25D illustrates a popular arm guard or bracer. Thisis also made from cordovan with one or two thin steel stayssewed between the leather and the chamois lining. It bucklesaround the wrist and the forearm. Some are equipped withelastic loops which are hooked on to eyes that are fastened onthe other side of the bracer. Some hunters prefer a leather cuff that is laced on theforearm like a legging. The cuff is gradually dying out andis difficult to find in dealers' stocks. |
