Comments about Tred Barta "Do It The Hard Way" Armguard:

This armguard is my personal favorite. Easy and quick to adjust - it fits over a bare arm or over a thick woolen shirt with the same snug fit.

A truly all weather product, it doesn't matter if it rains or shines, is a hot summer day or a cold winter blizzard - this armguard can take it.

The thick leather however, needs a while to be properly broken in.

Comments about Tred Barta "Do It The Hard Way" Armguard:

The first thing I noticed about this armguard is that the metal hooks for the lacing have *sharp* exposed metal on the back. I often times target shoot in a short sleeve shirt and I'm confident that this will cut my arm or at least irritate it. I also suspect it will put holes in my long sleeve camo shirt. I haven't even shot with it yet and I'm already planning on modifying it. I will be attaching 5 quarter sized pieces of leather on the backside to get this to where I feel like it is usable. What were they thinking....

Comments about Tred Barta "Do It The Hard Way" Armguard:

Overall it's very good. Very easy to get on and off, no matter what I'm wearing, very well made and durable. My only issue is that it's a bit uncomfortable after wearing it for 2 hours or so. If I loosen it it moves around to much, ad if I tighten it the elastic digs into my arm after a while. Maybe I just need to find that sweet spot where it's comfortable. Other then that it's great!

Very nice armgaurd. It may be a too long for some archers. I'm six feet tall and wish the guard was just a bit shorter.
