I first shot a Zipper at a Traditional event they use to have in St. Clairsville, Ohio. After only one shot I knew I had to have. I ended up buying a used on one here because I was getting married and didnt have much money laying around. I will eventually order another one from Bill. They are great bows. I am always shooting other peoples bows just to see how they compare to my Zipper, and havent found one yet that does.

Gen273,

Here is the link to my story about that buck.

Norb,

I never get tired of looking at those pictures of yours. All those shots are great. You going on any hunts this spring or next fall?  You need to pack up and head east and join us for another black bear hunt.  Quebec thats only a few hours from you right?
  ;)

If you guys think the Classic limbs are great, wait until you try a set of Evolution limbs.  :notworthy:

Tracy usualy updates the website before we go to Kzoo.I have about 10 stock bows for Kzoo that are 2/3 done.I also have 2 (13")ILF SXT's,3 (15")ILF Extreme,2(15")ILF Standard risers.I have 2 sets of ILF carbon and foam Evo.limbs.One set will make a 58" bow (Mekassar Ebony arrow inlay),on a 13" the other a 60" on a 13.When the finish work is done I will properly introduce them to Tradgang.

I will have all of these bows at Kzoo.for folks to play with.

Norb,

Heck ya we could make that happen. Need to have Bill come over while he is at it.

My brother has been seeing (noticed I didn't say shooting) some really good bucks down at his place.  All the land I hunt on up here in NW MO is through friends or family but we could probably put something in the works.  I just saw 15 deer on Mark Harris' place on Jan 8th.  Remember your chainsaw snoring roommate from the TX Sweat III, thats him.

Thanks for the update Bill. I guess the Kids' college fund can wait another year.

Chris, I'm game. Keep me in mind as the year progresses!
