Title: 56 INCH LEON STEWART SLAMMER
Post by: tukudu on March 06, 2011, 03:59:00 PM
Thought I share a few photos of Leon's new 56 inch Lil Slammer that is being offered for 2011 and just in time for turkey season.This little gem, is snaked out with a set of eastern diamondback skins, and has a veener of "Carpathian burl elm" on the belly. With a dark Bolivian rose wood riser this bow is just rich looking all around. This bow shoots like a 60 inch bow, is whisper quiet, and is absent any hand shock despite being lite in hand. Check out the "product review" section in a couple of days, I will share my honest opinion of this bow after a week of shooting it side by side with my 60 inch LS Slammer. It is all good and if you can't wait give Leon a call as he has several in stock, including this one that is getting a final finish applied to them as we speak. By the way the serial number on this bow is "LS SLammer.."bas"(badass)        :scared:        . His phone number is 610-857-2340.     (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010119.jpg)    (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010132.jpg)

Don I cannot even begin to describe what is going on with the Burl Elm, very crazy stuff. I hated to send that bow back to him.tm (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010129.jpg)

I just had Leon build me a 62" LS Special. Burled Red Elm on the back and belly. Curly and Cocobolo flared riser.

Does he have a carbon limb? Very nice looking bow? How are they performance wise? I like the 50s style. Good looking bows.

Hey Real Buckmaster...Mr. Stewart has a great websight and is a sponsor; check it out..he does have a carbon in limb core option.  Performance wise, his bows stack up well with the best of them.

Nice bow!I really like the attention he put into the fit of the leather grip.No one else that I know of does it that way.Sure would like to know if she could be drawn to 30".

Howard give him a shout. When he ran some of the prototypes I thought he told me that it was good to 30 but its best to chat with him, he will tell you like it is. tm
