Re: Surgical Tubes per-stetched before Match Start

We have found that anything like surgical tubes or bungie cords aren't reliable. They seem to get "tired." So if the tubing is tensioned before the match and waits for a few minutes the shot will be different than if you tension and shoot at once. So for that reason we have been using metal springs for this kind of application.
