Title: Palmer Traditional Slam
Post by: goosespirit on February 09, 2009, 02:27:00 PM
Hi everyone,

I have been itching for a palmer trad slam for a while, and am on the verge of ordering one. Can anyone tell me about this bow, or do you have any pics.  The palmer website is down and so I really dont even know what this bow looks like.  Any experiences, pics, or advice would be greatly appreciated,

Mike

Talked w/Nancy a week or so ago, they are still guiding hunts in Texas. Still taking orders but she could not nail down an approximate delivery time.

Mike,

I shot Mike's trad slam while visiting his shop  early last year and it shot great.  Everything you'd expect from a Palmer bow such as speed, smoothness of draw, awesome grip and NO handshock after the shot.  The bacote wood used to make the bow was beautiful too and the riser was engraved with the Palmer emblem and numerous animals heads.  I wanted one soooooooo bad but couldn't justify the expense since I already own two Palmers.  I would highly recommend any Palmer bow.

I know some people have had some issues with a couple of Palmer risers but I have owned mine for over 7 years and never had any problems.  I just string them up and they are ready to hunt.    

Good Luck.
