Anyone shoot a Zipper Hunter
« on: September 18, 2011, 08:45:00 PM »
Just wondering who has a Zipper Hunter and what you think of this Hunter model.  Any input will be appreciated.

Never shot the hunter....have 2 other Zippers and I would think the hunter is as good as the rest!!!

I have not shot the Hunter model, but I do have a SXT. I think that a zipper is one of the best bows made! I have had a lot of custom bows, but zipper is my pick.

I had a Hunter and was very happy with it. The only difference I could find was they are not as fancy looking as his other bows but they shoot equally. I sold mine to a friend just starting out and he is doing quite well with it.

A buddy of mine has one on order and should be here in a few weeks. I will let you know what I think of it after I shot it some, but I expect that it will shoot just as nice as Bills other bows.

Oh man, more Zipper talk. Just phoned today to order one, but they're away! Hunting I think, so can't get too worked up. I'm getting a pretty one though, like TJ's new one. It'll have the matte finish on it.

I just bought the Hunter Series. I am completely happy with this bow. For the money you can't go wrong with this bow. My buddy PSUHUNTER seemed to love the bow as well. Any questions just ask!

I started with a Hunter model with carbon/foam limbs, which is a great price for a top end performance bow, but ended up fancying it up while I waited my turn.    :D    If you go with carbon/foam limbs on the S riser Hunter, I believe you are getting an SXT - the only difference is your riser costs less.

I also believe the hunter has the matte finish, which is really nice - not shiny and helps with the grip on those hot, sweaty days.
