1.0 out of 5 stars Tapered Bands "laserhawk" unimproved, November 11, 2005

By	whatever "whatever" (nc) - See all my reviews

Well this is a prime example of a good product getting worse after some marketing person gets in the mix. Tapered bands 'laserhawk' type are suppose to increase velocity 30% and reduce required pulling force by an equal amount. Guess what, it does one of those but unfortunately it's the pulling force claim that is accurate and the velocity claim is a joke. I had one of the old ones which they still sell (and at a lower price) and they definitely have much more power. Any of the models with the yellowish bands that aren't tapered are a much better choice. Tapered bands do reduce pulling force required and also reduce the power of the shot. May be a good choice for someone with weak arms or a starter for a kid but not for the average joe looking to shoot as hard and straight as possible. Save yourself a couple of bucks and buy the Model 3040 or one of the others without the red tapered junk band. If you've already bought this one and can't take it back just tear off the bands and buy the $3 replacement bands Model 3330, they fit and they will make you much happier.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not happy - I feel item is misrepresented, August 10, 2008

By	Richele D. Sabbara (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

item that arrived was not as shown in picture. Additional items are not included. Seller wanted me to eat all shipping fees. I was not happy in my dealings with seller. AMAZON was GREAT in it's help in resolving the issue. I'll always buy through AMAZON because they stand behind their name and promise to protect the buyer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tapered Bands, July 3, 2008

By	Robert A. Draznik "Bob" (ILLINOIS) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been shooting slingshots for over 50 years and had used the tapered band item when my prior ones bit the dust. On the basis of the review above I switched to the non-tapered bands the reviewer suggested. With those bands my accuracy went to pot despite the possile(?) higher velocity. What's the point of higher velocity at the sacrifice of accuracy? None. Now I'm back to the tapered bands and my accuracy has returned.
