A homemade lube tube (in camo/duct tape finish<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>) made from a mini- M&M's container with a sponge in it. The lube is good ol armour all. Works great for me.

RE: what do you use for a lube?
I have always liked warm baby oil......OHwe were talking about arrow lube. I am like JD with the soap. But I went one step further. Melt some soap in the microwave then put it in a used deodorant dispenser that turns up from the bottom. Simple easy and no mess if it is raining.

RE: what do you use for a lube?
thanks again for the suggestions. here's another question? (don't laugh, i'm serious.)
do you ever notice any problems with soap putting a weight on the arrows making them not fly as true as without soap?
we shoot about 42 lb so our arrows don't have a lot of oomph.
just wondering.
