Jack Zwickey at Kalamazoo
« on: January 14, 2012, 09:59:00 AM »
I spoke to Jack Zwickey yesterday and mentioned the Kalamazoo Traditional Bowhunter's expo coming up at the end of January.  He said he was thinking about attending.  I told him to stop thinking and start packing.  I would be thrilled at the opportunity to visit with this man.

How about you?  

I strongly encouraged him to come.  We will have to see if he takes action and shows up.

I'd be honored to meet such a pioneer of broadhead design...hope he attends.

Hope he does attend.

My dad said zwickeys killed more deer by laying around the woods and being stepped on than all other heads combined

I've got zwickeys from when i got my first 'real' bow back in the 70's...
i was told by a sales person, when purchasing an out-of-date newpaper that it was out-of-date...

i told her "i've been told i'm out-of-date, too"...

does that mean i'm up-to-date?
