Just wanted to show off my new to me Zipper. I was looking around the big auction site and ran across this little gem. 62 inches and 55lb at 28 inches which come to 56 or 57 lb at my draw. The wood is cocobolo and zebrawood in the riser(which is an SXT) and the limbs are curly maple. This bow is SWEET!

I've yet to see an ugly Zipper, but that is one of the prettiest I've seen.

Most of the time my luck is absolute garbage but it finally turned out right. It doesn't seem right that i got this bow today and can shoot it as good if not better than my Pearson hunter i have been shooting for 2 years. I reckon its just one of those bows.

Can't believe that was on the big auction site! Good luck, it is an easy bow to get dialed in. Check the website for brace height info if you need it.

I do have one question about it. I have always read that if you nock an arrow and it sits straight on the shelf when the string is lined up on it the limbs aren't twisted. This bow does that but for some reason on this bow the string doesn't look like it directly sits over the middle of the limbs on both sides. The bow shoots fine and i strung it with a recurve stringer. Are the limbs twisted?

Can you take a picture of what looks like it isn't centered?
