If you have a flair for creativeness the "swish" can be used as a percussion tool.  \

It helps if you already have a natural nervous twitch. 

You have to train your twitch to use your swish.   (I thought I would never think of such a sentence!)

Elixers use Gore-tex or PTFE, PolyTetra-Flouro-Ethalene.............the swoosh is caused by too much particulate in the UV Polyester.  If they want to devolop a particulate from PTFE........bloody good luck.  There goes the cost effectiveness of the no-touch poly.  i'd think they'd go straight to Gore instead of a middleman....................

Nothing makes any sense.  Bullsh*t beats brains.

Ok so I admit I've done both types of snipe hunting, but the second type was with the boy scouts...we took new scouts out on a camping trip and walked them in circles in the woods just far enough so you could dimly see the camp fire.  We gave them all bags and sticks and told them to beat the brush and walk in a line so they wouldnt get thru.  Then we told them that we would run around and cut them off and push the snipes to the young scouts so they could catch them.  Well instead we ran back to camp and got some chicken wings covered it with some catsup and waited....and waited....next thing you know you hear heeeellllppppp, heeeelllllppp off in the distance.  Eventually  they came back and we acted like we caught some snipes and had already eaten them, sometimes we took chicken feathers out of a pillow and spread them in a pile with the wings for effect.

Well so far as swishes are concerned so far they don't bother me, and I think I learned my lesson, what it was I don't know.

QuoteDo ya'll use beer or whiskey for snipe lures?

Well. . . .they don't generally respond well to lures in these parts.  And a body really shouldn't hunt them under the influence.  .  .  But I have heard that their curiosity is arroused by 'swishing' sounds.  That's only hearsay but might be worth a try out by you.

Actually, the question was a bit deep; prone to many opinions and assorted definitions.  Some of us knew what you meant and responded conscientiously.  Others simply told what they thought they knew.  If you learned ANYTHING at all. . . .you are blessed in ways that none of us can understand!! ^_^ ^_^

You're a patient man, RC.   ^_^
