Another vote for Steve. He made one for me a couple weeks ago and it is very well made.

The perfect sling is no sling at all. And more often than not at home at least I go slingless . But.... The first time I started climbing rock in other places ... is when I realized .... Yeah a sling ain't so bad . I to use a claw . My only complaint is can't get it off the shoulder fast enough in a pinch it's so grabby . It has cost me a bird ... a couple times.

Claw contour for me, doesn't slip, and easily tightens, so no dangling movement..

The slim version of the claw is on my rifles...but my single shot turkey chaser has a Butler Creek neoprene which is about as comfy as a sling can get.

Love that Single Shot Turkey Chaser John, beauty of a gun for sure...

I will talk turkey anytime of year. Fortunately, the Lord has blessed me with the opportunity to work hard and win at a lot of things that are more important than this competition. I will continue to laugh and enjoy some fun and interaction with other like minded individuals. My hunting is going to continue to be a personal challenge and those that need a virtual trophy for their self esteem are welcome to it. Anybody is welcomed to go ahead and put their name on it in my place anytime if we would happen to "win" it if it means that much to ya. In my mind the joy is in the comraderie and interaction. Not the score.

I hunt with a sling on my rifle --- that gets an old military Garand sling --- less is more.

I've never used a sling on a shotgun.

I made my own using camo paracord -- it took two clove hitch knots to get it to stay in place (it could have been a different knot, I used trial and error to find which would really hold in place) -- used one lanyard bead there ---- then I used cobra knots going down the lanyard -- and ended with another lanyard bead --- It wasn't elite level, but I thought it was great.    My four year-old granddaughter saw me making it, wanted to know what I was doing, so the end result, then she wanted one for the zipper pull on her backpack.     

If try it, use way more rope than what you think you need for making your first.  Cobra knots take up a lot of rope.  Also, you may want more wiggle room at the top.  You can always recut/reburn, you can't add to it and it still look good, to me.
