Why it hits so hard
Pull heavy. Hit hard.
Heavy bands are where the power is, and they are also where most wrists give out. The wrist brace fixes that. It locks to the XT handle with a plate and a screw and braces your forearm through the draw, so you can pull the heaviest bands you want and put more of your power into every shot.
Then the rest of the Hammer gets out of your way. The ergonomic hammer grip fills your hand. FlipClip X clamps down on very wide flatbands, over the top or through the forks, and a coin is all it takes to swap them. And the kit ships with steel and clay bandsets and a sample of each ammo, so your first session is already in the box.
“It's comfortable to draw, and It hits anything like a hammer!”
What you get
What it does.
A brace that holds the arm.
The wrist brace locks to the XT handle with a plate and a screw. It braces your arm through the draw so you can pull the heaviest bands and put more of your power into every shot.
Very wide flatbands.
The XT head is built for very wide flatbands and looped tubes, shot over the top or through the forks.
A clip that won't let go.
FlipClip X is machined aluminum and clamps down on the heaviest bands. Its large slotted screw takes a coin, a pocket knife or whatever is on hand.
The first session is in the box.
Steel and clay bandsets with a sample of each ammo, a paracord lanyard and an 80 mm spinner target.
A rail for your gear.
The XT handle has a Picatinny rail. Add the Rail Adapter for a light or a bowfishing reel.
Arrows when you want them.
Add the XT Slingbow Head and the same handle shoots arrows.
Who it is for
Shooters who want power. If you want to pull heavy bands and send heavy ammo, the brace is the reason to pick this kit.
Hunters. Hunting takes heavy bands and heavy ammo, and the brace lets you pull the heaviest bands with more power in every shot. Ed G. calls it a “Great stable platform for hunting.”
Anyone who wants the full platform later. The XT handle takes the slingbow head, the rail adapters and everything else the Hammer does.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Does the Heavy Duty come with bands?
Yes. It ships with a clay ammo bandset and a steel ammo bandset, each with a sample of its ammo, plus a paracord lanyard and an 80 mm spinner target.
Can I take the wrist brace off?
Yes. The brace is held on with a plate and a screw. Shoot with it for heavy bands, or without it when you want a lighter feel.
How do I change bands?
Loosen the FlipClip X screws with a coin or a pocket knife, set the new bands in the clips and tighten down. Brass thumb screws, sold separately, let you do it by hand.
Will it shoot arrows?
With the XT Slingbow Head, yes. It fits the same XT handle.
