    Good Points: Typical marksman quality-comfortable grip, nice wrist brace that doesn't slap your arm or wrist. Easy to pull bands, good quality leather pouch


    Bad Points: The talon grip idea doesn't really work well in practice. you get some really wild shots due to this. My advice, cut the threads and get rid of the magnet.


    General comments: The talon grip is an idea that sounds great but really doesn't work. Of the 5 I have examined, in two cases, the magnet had become inert. Shooting 1/2" glass balls with this rig was a disaster. The magnet prevents a consistent grip by the draw hand fingers. I doubt this marketing ploy will last much longer and while it may work with 1/4" balls (one of which comes with the sling), it does not work well with the stuff us serious shooters use-the 1/2" steel balls or the slightly larger glass marbles.

    Once you get rid of that little magnet, the sling is far easier to shoot more accurately. I let three experienced archers (all three top age group archers in Olympic recurve in the USA) shoot various slingshots and they all agreed that this pouch with the magnet prevented repeatable accuracy. With the magnet removed they all liked it.
