Congrats Bob on starting a great product. Congrats Bill and Tracy for continuing and building upon that start, and adding your own special touches. See you in a couple weeks?

Happy Anniversary! That's a great milestone, with many more to come, I'm sure. Hopefully my bow happens this year to be part of the celebration. Keep up the good work.

I spoke with Bill at Baltimore last year. What a great guy. Now to know the roots of the business and see what Bob is producing. Nice pedigree.
The parlor guitar is most interesting!
Yes, there is a Zipper in my future.

Figured I would chime in. In college I would send away for brochures (what's that, no computers and website wasn't even a word). I loved getting mail and Zipper had the most striking curly maple bow . I would stare at it for hours. Only a pipe dream at that time as there was no money for a bow . As fate would have it , I finished my schooling and moved 1/2 hour away from Bob and soon ordered my first Zipper. Spent some time at his shop and spoke with many people that worked with him. He's a smart cat and his products speak to his craftsmanship. His pool cues, instruments, and gun stocks are spectacular.I really am fortunate to have spent time over at his shop and get to see his ability and shoot his bows. Definitely the first big step in my "bowholic illness" and amplified my passion for bowhunting (if Bob could shoot a deer with a recurve using his feet because his arm was injured.....surely I could kill one with two good arms !)
