Could be the battery cables, don't use the skinney little ones made for 12 volt systems. Use something with #1 gauge or larger cables #00 or #1/0 would be my choice.

Could be a high resistance connection. Make sure all the connections are clean, bright and tight, including the ground side too.

Could be the comutator in the starter. Is it clean and do the brushes make even contact across their entire contact surface. Make sure that the insulators between comutator segments are clean with no copper chips bridging across them.

Could be trouble with the rotor in the starter. You'd have to take it to a starter/generator shop to have that checked out on a growler.
