Title: New to me, stewart slammer
Post by: pdk25 on October 20, 2009, 10:02:00 PM
Just picked up a stewart slammer from longbowleo.  It's 66" long and 71# at 28".  Probably around 74# for me.  Just got it today and haven't had a chance to shoot it yet.  It is in like new condition and sure looks the part.  Looking forward to slinging a few arrows with it.

Slammer is a great choice, it should be hard hitting at that weight, fast and highly shootable. I have a 60 incher and it is as quiet as a mouse pissin on a cotton ball. You can't beat Leon's bows. tom massaro

LOL.  Not so young as I used to be, but it seems the fatter that I get, the stronger that I get.  I wonder what will happen when I go on a diet.

Leons bows are fast, quiet, and deadlly accurate. Built to last forever. You cannot go wrong.

What macclare said, I have yet to shoot or hear any bow as quiet as Leon's.

Leon and his bows are top-notch. Stayed with him for a few days a few years back and it was like meeting an old friend. Actually sitting here with my Penn. Longbow Ass. T-shirt on right now. His bows hit like a freight train with incredible accuracy.

LOL, Adam.  Don't get me wrong, 74 pounds feels pretty heavy.  On the bright side, it makes 63 pounds feel real light.  :goldtooth:
