My new Zapper bow
« on: March 03, 2008, 04:38:00 PM »
I had an extra set of Zipper limbs kicking around and no funds for a riser. My friend Robert Painter (aka twotimer) and his buddy James Kimbrell graciously offered to help me out.

Introducing the Zapper (had to call the bow aomething). 62" 51@29 Zipper limbs, Kimbrell Bubinga riser. Hurls an arrow with authority. This is the last group of five and it turned out nicely so hence the pic lol. Enjoy, I am.

Thanks Robert and James!

The pictures don't do the bow justice. It shoots lights out and has beautiful grain.
