Again, it's not a science, it's an art. Different approaches can still get great results. I'm similar to what JLS noted above in that I don't really oil formed holsters, maybe wipe a sheepskin that once upon a time had oil on it over the grain side of the leather but I do oil everything else and I heavily oil some items, so in that regard he and I are different. Neither is wrong, we're just different.

If you like it and it works, you've done the "right" thing. If you don't like it or it fails to perform the way you wanted do it differently next time. If your sling is dry and looks like it may crack when flexed then oil it but don't go so far as to have oil dripping off of it. The hide can affect how much is "right" as much as anything else.

Good luck, Josh
