I think what happened to trumark slingshots it it's out of business
As Internet business expands, Trumark's loss of dominance in the slingshot market after 2012 is one of the most significant failures in small business history.
It is still mind-boggling how fast Trumark fell from the top rank of the dominant slingshot company to vanish in the market within 6 years.
How did this happen? The competetion just becomes much more keen than ever. Many slingshot brands from USA, China grow very fast. Trumark was Over-confidence and not reacted to the Internet market quickly.
Such as DANKUNG releases new products each month, SimpleShot postes new slingshot video frequently, while Trumark not updates its website in 20 years!
That Could be one reason leads Trumark out of business.
There are some popular Chinese slingshot brands such as PRECISE, DANKUNG, etc.
MoreFarther doesn't have it official webstie, nor it sells at Taobao.if you dig TAOBAO(taobao.com, the biggest ecommerce webisite in China) well,you will notice it. So MoreFarther is a rebranding slingshot seller. MoreFarther just acquires the slingshot handles,fork heads and sights,put their brand on it and make it their own brand. So I prefer the famous brands such as PRECISE, DANKUNG,CONGLIN or USA brands such as Trumark, SIMPLESHOT etc.
Probably Trumark is out of business. It was the Synonyms of slingshot.
Trumark's official website http://slingshots.com/ is still available, but it looks like an antique website, the font,the images and the page layout are all like a site in 20 years ago, poorly displayed.
I checked google map, the Google's link to "trumark slingshots" says "permanently closed.". The phone is out of service. The
Colorado Secretary of State lists it in good standing, however its address is a Park Mail - the private postal boxes.
Does anyone have any information about this iconic slingshot manufacturer?
I received your paintball pouches.
You made a very good job.
They shoot very quietly and the grip is fantastic . The two holes beside the middle hole is very good to flip out the balls of the pouch.
The very first shot over 12 m hit a golf ball exactly.
Thank you very much, best regards Gerhard
My first shooting session with the Generation 2 Precise Orange was not so good. I had mistakenly assumed the .50mm thickness would make this a mild band that was comparable to the same thickness from other manuafcturers. The first bandset tested was 20mm x 12mm and was quite stiff to draw. Speed with small ammo was nothing to brag about and the draw stacked badly at the end of my pull length. I gave up on the Orange for a couple of weeks.Next, I decided to try a skinny cut with the Precise Orange and was pleasantly surprised. The stretch improved, draw weight reduced, band life is good and performace with small ammo was impressive. Here are the details.13mm x 10mm x 180mm (810mm draw length)5/16" steel = 233fps ave7mm steel = 252 fps ave
