I have tried many pouch designs and materials over the years. For material,I just think you cannot beat a good piece of either Cowhide or Pigskin. As far as designs,check out a few(<img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" longdesc="6"> in the picture below. They all have their loyal fans. I use a few different types but my main one is an ammo specific(3/8") double cupped pouch w/centering hole in hinge-( last on right ). I am also fond of the trianguler "5" hole pouch with "half moon" cutouts at the hinge(3rd from right). The center punch out holds the ball while the two holes on either side position the outer circumference for any easy grip-sort of a double cup without the cup. Then there is a plain straight pouch-old tried and true(1st from left). Then a vented straight pouch (3rd from left). Also (2nd from left) a "5" hole straight pouch. A "3" hole pouch(4th from left)-center hole cradles the ammo. Then a wet formed center cupped pouch ( 5th from left ). A multi-sized ammo double cup pouch is in the #7 spot. There are some other types out there too,magnetic,boilie(bait throwers) woven,hot formed plastic,nylon,webbing,and probably some more I may have forgotten. They are as varied and different as the many frames we see out there. The little leather pouch-it has certainly come a long way!!!!

Dont do that. If you copy the thumbnail Image link from rightclick menu, it will show only thumbnail size in the forums. <br>To show the real sizes- If you move your mouse over the thumbnail in your photobucket album, it will pop out with options. Below it you will see the option 'Direct Link'. Just click on the 'Direct Link' and the url wil get coppied. Then insert image here. or... unless you are really resizing them into tiny for a purpose. <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_twisted.gif" alt="Twisted Evil" longdesc="13"><img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_twisted.gif" alt="Twisted Evil" longdesc="13"></span>
