Love my Zipper SXT. I have both longbow and recurve limbs for it. They are shooters for sure and Bill and Tracey are awesome to deal with!!
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

I love my Zipper Nitro.....best bow for ME,  out of all the bows Ive either owned or tried.   There are still many I have not tried of course and I'll be honest.....I probably wont even bother.  That Nitro just fits me perfectly,  in every way.  Im fixing to score another in the near future,  just to have at least one back up....same specs.  60' Nitro,  53# at 28"(....thats my actual draw length)  I couldnt ask more from my arrow set either (for what I hunt = NON dangerous game) .....a GT traditional 3555 .006 that I trim on both ends.  Those arrows are 29.5 inches long.  I use 200 grains up front.  4 4inch shield cuts glued to 7 inch wraps from ONE STRINGER.   I use EASTON SUPER 3D nocks.  My arrows give me 9.5 GPP ....they fly PERFECT.  For you,  I bet that same shaft cut to the same length with 250 up front,  may make you smile!

Just ordered a new set of Carbon Foam Evo. Recurve limbs for my Extreme riser. 57#@26"60"bow. Zebra wood veneers with antler tips. Sure they will be deadly beauty!  :thumbsup:

Bill and Tracy are great people.  I just love my two zipper recurves.  Bill was patient enough to deal with all my questions and requests for making two bows out of wood from the family farm.  The results speak for themselves:

Osage and Walnut Zipper Extreme:

   

   


Gnarly Dogwood Zipper SXT:

Thanks for all the support, guys!

That Dogwood bow was one of my fovorite builds. It was also a huge pain in the rear!   :D

Have to say that Osage/Walnut Zipper was my inspiration to get my hands on one. My bow funds are closed, just happy to have one I can get my hands on every time a thread like this pops up.
