Folks just got back from spending a day with Leon at this shop and taking pics of his bows in preparation for Denton Hill. He has a real nice collection of "Slammers" for sale....all nice stuff. If you get a chance check his booth out. Here is a good example. thanks TM :clapper: :clapper: (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010316.jpg) (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010318.jpg) (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010317.jpg)

PLEASE be careful... I made the mistake of wandering into Leon's booth...looked...touched...shot...lost sleep that nite... asked friends who also have the same disorder as I do and they said "Do it you deserve it" Went back with same friends next morning... ordered (peer pressure) waited several loooong months... went to pick it up, had lunch with Leon and have been one VERY happy camper since. Do it, you deserve it!!!

John that sounds sweet. I really like the bocote/osage flair and old school black glass on front. That is going to be one handsome bow. I am really glad he likes to mix up the black and brown glass with these fancy veneers, they just grab you and the contrast is great.
We were talking about the carbon tech whitetails. I do not think that there is a better hunting arrow out there. The 35/55 work great on all of my bows in your weight range and you can jocky weight up front with no issues. By far the best I have seen. Looking forward to seeing picks of yours. tm

Was thinking today about just this, wondering what left hand stuff he is bringing this year. Always causes a problem when I 'm near his booth. See fmscan above.

Thanks Tom- I was just thinking if I had to have one bow what would it be and Leon's slammer won, they just shoot for me. Good news I can have more than one.

Here is a good example of the curly lam. This one is real nice with good curly. I have seen dark stained ones as well. I have one with a brown glass face and curly like this. (http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac45/massaro-60/P1010299.jpg)
