My New Zipper SXT...WOW!
« on: May 29, 2018, 08:35:21 PM »
I just wanted to give a review on my New zipper SXT longbow from Tom Jenkins me and Tom have become friends over the last year or two talking bows and also he is a big buck killer as many know here on Tradgang...the woods are stunning in this bow definitely eye candy but the most important thing is how it performs and this Bow has it all smooth, dead in the hand along with  thegreatest grip I've ever felt on a bow ..I have been through quite a few bows over the last few years and to top it off it is quietest I ever shot it hands down so if any of you are in the market for a New bow give Tom a call he won't steer you wrong...its a pleasure to deal with a great guy and see someone take zipper bows over and keep the name going strong along with a great product ..Again thxs tom for a great bow and I hope to have many successful days afield with it!! Pics next

Sweet looking bow! They are definitely top notch and Tom can really match woods like no other! I can't wait til my number is up! How do you like the longbow limbs compared to the recurve limbs? I was leaning toward the longbow limbs at first but have heard so many good things about the new recurve limbs.

Jarrod, Congrats on the bow!! It’s a beauty. I’m loving the riser  :goldtooth:. Fred

Welcome to the Zipper club Jarrod !!! You sure got your hands on a sweet looking bow. Tom Jenkins sure has an eye for stunning wood combos. I couldn’t agree with you more about the grip on the SXT. It’s what I seem to judge all other grips against. BTW, this won’t be your last Zipper either. It becomes a sickness... :biglaugh:

Beautiful bow Jarrod. I hope to see it in person at Denton!

Tom is doing a great job with Zipper. I'm sure he will continue to carry the Zipper name with more grest bows.

That’s a Sharp Stick for sure. Tom is a super nice guy. Very cool seeing him builds bows like yours.

That is the best looking Zipper I've seen.  If possible could you post a close up picture of the riser. Thanks Dan

Nice looking bow, brother, but with your hands you can't be the judge on what the best grip is, lol.
